Chinese-British Peer-Reviewed Paper Shows Holocene Dry-Wet Oscillations “Most Likely In Response To Solar Activity”
The number of papers appearing recently showing that the sun has a major impact on the Earth’s climate is truly baffling. After all how could a twinkly little star 150 million kilometers away, separated from the Earth by empty space, possibly impact our climate? Everyone knows that trace gas CO2 drives climate 95%, that it’s the Earth’s climate-control [...]
Yet Another Paper Shows “The Enormous Importance Of Solar Activity Fluctuations On Climate”
Yet another study has appeared in the Journal of Geophysical Research, this one looks at the precipitation history on the Tibetan Plateau of the last 1000 years. Figure 1: Reconstruction of precipitation amounts for the edge of the Tibetan Plateau. The bars on the chart depict prominent weak phases of solar activity, which correspond to Om [...]
PNAS Study Shows Powerful Correlation Between Sun And Climate Over The Last 9000 Years
By Dr. Sebastian Lüning and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt (Translation / editing by P Gosselin) The IPCC thinks the sun plays nary a role on climate and that anthropogenic factors explain almost the entire warming since 1850. It’s been completely ignored that Gerard Bond was able to show more than 10 years ago that the last [...]
Russian Lake Vostok Scientists Say “New Ice Age Is Unavoidable”
Someone forgot to tell the Russians that natural climate factors no longer count for anything, and that from the 20th century on man-made CO2 is the sole driver of the climate – now making the Earth only warmer and warmer. Lake Vostok under almost 4000 meters of ice in Antarctica. Source: US Government. The German edition [...]
No Relation Found Between Cosmic Rays And Atmospheric Transmission
On Cosmic Rays and Clouds By Ed Caryl There have been several papers and articles recently about Svensmark’s theory that claim cosmic rays produce cloud nuclei, which in turn produce clouds that affect the Earth’s climate. My recent article showed the relationship between atmospheric transmission, the Earth’s albedo, and temperature. Photo by Krish Dulal. If [...]
Coral Reef Growth Found To Be In Snyc With The Sun – Yet IPCC Ignores Sun Even More!
The warmists keep insisting that it’s CO2 and that the sun is not playing a role in our climate today. According to them, the sun has been on strike and stopped playing a role since mankind started its sinful use of CO2. Yet another study is out and shows that the warmists are off in [...]
Is The Temperature Rise Since 1980 Due To The Sun?
By Matti Vooro Recently I happened to look through some scientific papers and articles on global warming and the various forcing factors that affect our climate. One that caught my eye was a paper by N.A. Krivova and S.K. Solanki [2003] called: Solar variability and global warming: a statistical comparison since 1850. http://www.solen.info/solar/cyclcomp.html, web page prepared by Jan [...]
Rampelotto Shows Distinct Solar Correlation In Southern Brazil – More Evidence Cosmic Rays Play An Important Role
A Brazilian team of scientists led by Pabulo Henrique Rampelotto recently published in the Journal of Atmospheric and Solar Terrestrial Physics a paper on precipitation and temperature patterns in Santa Maria in Southern Brazil. It’s the sun! What follows are excerpts from “Die kalte Sonne“ website. Brazilian agriculture and climate. Public domain by its author, [...]
Maine 6800-Year Peat Bog Core Shows Distinct Solar Correlation – More Frequent New England Flooding Ahead!
I’m a little short on time and so today I will present the translation of the latest write-up at Die kalte Sonne website, which discusses yet another recent study showing yet again that the sun plays a major role on climate. Maine peat bog cores show climate correlates with solar activity. Solar Activity Shows Precipitation In [...]
Sorry – Yet 2 More Studies Show Significant Part Of Warming Since 1850 Is Caused By The Sun
Fritz Vahrenholt’s and Sebastian Lüning’s Die kalte Sonne website brings up another study that shows the sun plays a significant role in climate development. How many more of these are we going to need? I don’t know why there are still people out there who deny what ought to be obvious. ============================== New Norwegian studies: [...]
Emphatic Blow To CO2 Warmists – New Study Shows A Clear Millennial Solar Impact Throughout Holocene
A new paper titled High-resolution sea surface reconstructions off Cape Hatteras over the last 10 ka appearing just recently in the AGU Paleoceanography Journal authored by Caroline Cléroux et al provides further, clear evidence of a major solar impact on climate during the Holocene. Hat/tip: http://kaltesonne.de/. According to the paper’s abstract, the study presents high-resolution foraminiferal-based sea surface temperature, [...]
Continued Crumbling Consensus: Austrian Space Research Institute Director Baumjohann Says Sun Cannot Be Ignored!
More bad news for the catastrophe-insisting climate alarmists who claim 95% of climate change is due to 0.04% trace gas CO2. Yet another prominent scientist, this one a big-league heavy hitter, has expressed serious doubt on CO2′s sole dominance during a recent interview. The once much ballyhooed consensus keeps falling apart. Professor Wolfgang Baumjohann, Director of the [...]
Svensmark Hits Back At Scienceblog’s Florian Freistetter Over Vahrenholt Book
There’s been lots of disingenuous criticism from the CO2 end-of the world warmists and Armageddonists aimed at Fritz Vahrenholt’s and Sebastian Lüning’s new best selling skeptic book Die kalte Sonne. Much of it attacking Svensmark’s theory of solar amplification via cosmic rays. Again. none have really read the book, they simply repeat the same old [...]
Book By Vahrenholt – German Warmist Scientist Claims: “I Need Only Two Sentences To Show It’s CO2!”
ARD German public television presented a short clip of Fritz Vahrenholt and the contents of his new book during its early morning show on Monday. ARD had an agitated Prof Mojib Latif on to respond. It is still unclear why Latif is agitated with Vahrenholt to begin with, as they both agree that CO2 is [...]
Prestigious Institute Director Eicke Weber Reveals Stunning Lack Of Climate Science Knowledge In Interview
If an “expert” sits down for an interview with a leading media outlet, he should at least know what he’s talking about. Unfortunately this was hardly the case for Georg Feulner of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) and Eicke Weber, Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems in Freiburg, Germany, both [...]
