- Experts Adrift: Solar Cycle 25 more active than expected Sun, 10 Apr 22, 2:32amThere’s an electromagnetic ball of fire that is 1.3 million times the size of Earth and just 8 minutes away by photon, and we really have no idea what’s going there.
- Spotless Sun again. Even a little ice age won’t slow the Man-Made Climate Monster Thu, 30 Jun 16, 3:03pmSpotless Sun June 29th, 2016 | Spaceweather.com | SDO/HMI The Sun is spotless again. I hasn’t been this inactive for a hundred years. This week there are a spate of news stories about a little ice age...
- Is a mini-ice age coming in 2030, and does the sun have two dynamos? Tue, 14 Jul 15, 3:22pmIs the Sun driven by two dynamos, each running on slightly different 11 year cycles?
- The Sun and solar physicists go quiet Thu, 15 Jan 15, 7:55amSometime around 2007 or 2008 the sun’s magnetic field should’ve become more active again as part of the cycle it had been roughly following for at least 80 years...
- Solar cycle affects human fertility and lifespan Mon, 12 Jan 15, 9:50pmDavid Archibald points at a very interesting paper that suggests that children conceived during solar activity peaks were less likely to survive and had a whopping 5 year deduction from their lifespan...
- New paper shows solar activity is linked to the Greenland climate even 20,000 years ago Wed, 20 Aug 14, 8:47pmThis new paper by Adophi et al uses beryllium, oxygen and carbon isotopes from Greenland ice cores right back as far as the depth of the last ice age 22,500 years ago and finds there is a link between solar activity and the...
- Sun controls half of the groundwater recharge rate in China for last 700 years Mon, 28 Apr 14, 1:13pmCould this be why climate models do rainfall with all the competence of tea-leaf-reading? Tiwari et al report that as much as 47% of the recharge rates of ground water in China are controlled by the sun...
- Has North Victoria cooled, and is that the ghost of a solar cycle signal we see? Mon, 25 Jun 12, 9:45amIan Bryce sent me a striking graph (or two). Looking at the original raw data from Echuca Victoria shows a dramatic cooling trend of nearly half a degree since 1900, and rather than being a siting anomaly, it’s repeated...
- Global Cooling Coming? Archibald uses solar and surface data to predict 4.9°C fall (!) Thu, 26 Jan 12, 8:38pmDavid Archibald, polymath, makes a bold prediction that temperatures are about to dive sharply (in the decadal sense). He took the forgotten correlation that as solar cycles lengthen and weaken, the world gets cooler. He...
- Major Drop in Solar Activity Predicted: Little Ice Age, part II? Thu, 15 Sep 11, 2:38amOminously, the embryonic markers of solar cycle 25 three years late and are nowhere to be seen. Scientists are asking if this could be the start of another Maunder-type Minimum. (The bummer with that, being that during...
