Short summary
We investigated forest albedo and FAPAR in Alaska and Finland in the boreal zone, using a radiative transfer model parameterized with forest inventory data. Albedo and canopy FAPAR were tightly connected in coniferous forests, indicating that managing forests to increase albedo may compromise productivity. Alaskan and Finnish forests differed in their albedo and FAPAR values, and solar elevation was an important factor controlling the relationships between forest structure, albedo, and FAPAR.
