دریاچه های نادیده گرفته ممکن است به خنک نگه داشتن نیمکره شمالی کمک کنند

Overlooked lakes may be helping to keep the Northern Hemisphere cool

Lakes may cover only a small fraction of Earth's surface, but new research suggests they play a bigger role in regulating the planet's climate than previously recognized. By reflecting sunlight back into space when covered in snow and ice, lakes in the Northern Hemisphere have a stronger cooling effect than the surrounding land.
