What do you think about this new University of Alberta study?

Bright shrubs an unexpected ally against tundra warming
phys.org

Instead of amplifying the warming effect, this summer increase in tundra albedo actually appears to counteract the earlier spring snow melt on land surface energy balance by about 40 per cent, mitigating concerns that the increased shrub growth over the next few decades would absorb more solar radiation and cause even more warming. These findings demonstrate that such magnified warming effects may be less likely.

"The significance, and what was surprising, is that our results indicate that vegetation changes over the next 50 years are unlikely to have a large effect on Arctic energy budgets," Williamson explains, adding that future studies of the dynamics of Arctic surface albedo will need to take this process into account
