As an efficient tool for monitoring the surfaces of the Earth, remote sensing is widely used for deriving long-term surface broadband albedo with various geostationary and polar-orbit satellite platforms in recent decades. Moreover, the algorithms for estimating surface broadband albedo from satellite observations, including narrow-to-broadband conversions, bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) angular modeling, direct-estimation algorithm and the algorithms for estimating albedo from geostationary satellite data, are developed and improved. In this paper, we present a comprehensive literature review on algorithms and products for mapping surface broadband albedo with satellite observations and provide a discussion of different algorithms and products in a historical perspective based on citation analysis of the published literature. This paper shows that the observation technologies and accuracy requirement of applications are important, and long-term, global fully-covered (including land, ocean, and sea-ice surfaces), gap-free, surface broadband albedo products with higher spatial and temporal resolution are required for climate change, surface energy budget, and hydrological studies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs70100990","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,1,16]],"date-time":"2015-01-16T10:23:36Z","timestamp":1421403816000},"page":"990-1020","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":121,"title":["Mapping Surface Broadband Albedo from Satellite Observations: A Review of Literatures on Algorithms  and Products"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"7","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9683-7136","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ying","family":"Qu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"College of Global Change and Earth System Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2708-9183","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shunlin","family":"Liang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"College of Global Change and Earth System Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"Department of Geographical Sciences, University of Maryland, College Park 20742, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5302-9849","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qiang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"College of Global Change and Earth System Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tao","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geographical Sciences, University of Maryland, College Park 20742, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Suhong","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"School of Geography, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaowen","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, Beijing Normal University,  Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"School of Geography, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,1,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"305","DOI":"10.1016\/S0065-2687(08)60176-4","article-title":"Land surface processes and climate\u2014Surface albedos and energy balance","volume":"25","author":"Dickinson","year":"1983","journal-title":"Adv.
