External forcing of the geomagnetic +eld? Implications for the cosmic ray .ux—climate variability
Data on the relation of past climate variations and changes in the geomagnetic +eld can contribute to the research on a cosmic ray–climate link. This paper presents a synthesis of geological and astrophysical results about the link of magnetic +eld variations and Earth’s climate and external forcing. On millennial timescales, geomagnetic intensity lows are apparently in phase with times of low ...
متن کاملAltitude variations of cosmic ray induced production of aerosols: Implications for global cloudiness and climate
[1] The indirect radiative forcing of atmospheric aerosols is sensitive to particle size and concentration, which are influenced significantly by nucleation processes. Via its role in aerosol formation, cosmic ray may affect the cloud condensation nuclei abundance and hence the global cloud properties and climate. Systematic variations in ionization rates due to the modulation of cosmic ray rad...
متن کاملCan solar variability explain global warming since 1970?
[1] The magnitude of the Sun’s influence on climate has been a subject of intense debate. Estimates of this magnitude are generally based on assumptions regarding the forcing due to solar irradiance variations and climate modeling. This approach suffers from uncertainties that are difficult to estimate. Such uncertainties are introduced because the employed models may not include important but ...
متن کاملThe effect of increasing solar activity on the Sun’s total and open magnetic flux during multiple cycles: Implications for solar forcing of climate
[1] We investigate the relationship between solar irradiance and cosmogenic isotope variations by simulating with a flux transport model the effect of solar activity on the Sun’s total and open magnetic flux. As the total amount of magnetic flux deposited in successive cycles increases, the polar fields build up, producing a secular increase in the open flux that controls the interplanetary mag...
متن کاملWhat is the solar influence on climate? Overview of activities during CAWSES-II
This paper presents an overview of the main advances in the Key Questions identified by the Task Group ‘What is the Solar Influence on Climate’ by the SCOSTEP CAWSES-II science program. We go through different aspects of solar forcing from solar irradiance, including total solar irradiance (TSI) and solar spectral irradiance (SSI), to energetic particle forcing, including energetic particle pre...
