iNow Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 On current long term cycle, solar involvement; I have no argument and agree they are involved. I do argue this. I'll show you why: http://www.journals.royalsoc.ac.uk/content/h844264320314105/fulltext.html There are many interesting palaeoclimate studies that suggest that solar variability had an influence on pre-industrial climate. There are also some detection-attribution studies using global climate models that suggest there was a detectable influence of solar variability in the first half of the twentieth century and that the solar radiative forcing variations were amplified by some mechanism that is, as yet, unknown. However, these findings are not relevant to any debates about modern climate change. Our results show that the observed rapid rise in global mean temperatures seen after 1985 cannot be ascribed to solar variability, whichever of the mechanisms is invoked and no matter how much the solar variation is amplified. The above was published in the proceedings of "The Royal Society" just 3 weeks ago. [bold added by me]
