Effect of removing zodiacal light and starlight, on fitted albedo, for V-band filter images. Shown is the percentage change in fitted albedo: positive values indicate a rise in albedo upon removal of background sky brightness. 79% of the changes are positive (dotted line); 50% (dashed line) are greater than 0.18. We note that there is both a shifted peak of the distribution and a broader scatter. The origins of the broader scatter is not due to uncertainties in the applied ZL+SL corrections, but can originate in the stochasticity of the lunar dark-side data themselves.
