Thanks guys,
solar gain is indeed affected by what the radiation hits. I was thinking in
terms of energy when I typed. Even in the case of energy stored chemically
through photosynthesis, there is no gain or loss in energy, just some stored
for later release.

NOT leave by the same means. This is one of the
unique aspects of life.

Hey Lee;
that's
I would also think that is the ground is covered in reflective snow would
not the trees also be covered. That would be with evergreen treees.
Deciduous trees would have no leaves so the snow effect would be the same.
Also the initial absorbtion of sunlight on leaf surfaces would occur 30
meters in
Thanks Thomas for pointig this out!
It is rather nonesence to say that trees have a warming effect!
What about the natural low-pressure over forest-areas? Any
Glider-pilot can tell about the thermic effect over grassland and so.
Beside,walk thru a forest and feel the fresh and cool air!
It seems

Not necesarily -- here in high country in Colorado, the trees are not
covered for
I would have thought that the solar gain on bare earth would have been the same
as the solar gain when the trees are heated. The same sun and solar intensity
has entered the same atmosphere. The same energy has arrived and must leave our
planet by the same means, no matter where/what it hits.

Trees do a whole lot more than 'just' sink carbon.
and 'we' are losing forests, not gaining forests.
