Hill's NSO colleague Sushanta Tripathy also turned to helioseismology to investigate the recent solar minimum, finding that in acoustic oscillations deep within the sun there were in fact two separate minima — one in late 2007 that did not correspond to the sunspot minimum, and one around late 2008 that did.

The big problem is to explain a lag of more than 30 years when direct measurements of quantities (galactic cosmic rays, 10.7 cm solar radio, magnetic index, level of sunspot numbers, solar cycle lengths) do not indicate any trend in the solar activity since the 1950s.

In an interview with New Scientist, Hippie said the dips don't necessarily mean an exomoon is present — it could be sunspots on the parent star.

The number of sunspots varies as solar magnetic activity does — the change in this number, from a minimum of none to a maximum of roughly 250 sunspots or clusters of sunspots and then back to a minimum, is known as the solar cycle, and averages about 11 years long.

Sunspots are harmless and don't turn into skin cancer.

The future scenes also contain some good action beats that bookend the 1973 section, but because many of the featured mutants (like Bishop, Blink, Warpath and Sunspot) are appearing on screen for the first time with almost no introduction, you don't really care what happens to any of them, especially when the actors only have about three lines of dialogue combined.

Under the care of Alice Braga's Dr. Cecilia Reyes the titular team includes Anya Taylor - Joy as Illyana Rasputin / Magik, Maisie Williams as Rahne Sinclair / Wolfsbane, Charlie Heaton as Sam Guthrie / Cannonball, Henry Zaga as Sunspot / Roberto da Costa, and Blu Hunt as Danielle Moonstar / Mirage - all young mutants who don't have full control over their abilities yet and are considered a danger to themselves and others.

Researchers for over a century have therefore taken any climate records they can find and searched for correlations to the sunspots, the solar - cycle length, geomagnetic indices, cosmogenic isotopes or smoothed versions thereof (and there are many ways to do the smoothing, and you don't even need to confine yourself to one single method per record).

Since they were «always there» and happened to be the same ones in the sunspot data, and the ones in the sunspot data were the same ones noted in the literature for sun phenomena as having physical basis, I assumed they probably were physical reality in the temperature data (doesn't mean they were though).

So, I just sit around and count spotless days (11 in a row most recently) and wait for the climate to do what it always does whenever the sunspot count is this low.

Heck, we're doing such a great job at warming the planet, we don't even need sunspots to do it.

The ocean will keep absorbing the forcing energy and warming, we don't need sunspots anymore to warm.

Do you think that in the same way that the Solanki et al paper on solar sunspot reconstructions had a specific statement that their results did not contradict ideas of strong greenhouse warming in recent decades, this (the fact that climate sensitivity projections are not best estimates of possible future actual temperature increases) should be clearly noted in media releases put out by scientists when reporting climate sensitivity studies?

The sun's actual heat output varies slightly in a cyclical way, with sunspot activity waxing and waning over an 11 year cycle, but despite careful measurement, that has been done for well over 100 years, there's no significant long term change in the sun's heat output.

At least volcanism has a known mechanism, while sunspot activity does not.

Sunspot and temperature correlations do not prove causality.»

Maybe a dumb question BUT since the «hockey stick» shows up in the sunspot curves in 20 above, in the Solanski 2002 Jeffreys lecture solar irradiance curves, in Be-10 curves etc etc, indicating a driving solar forcing for the hockey stick, then why doesn't it show up in the GCM models for natural only (see Is modelling science http://www.realclimate.org/index.php?p=100) Surely the volcanic forcings from one 1991 volcano can't dominate the sun?

Since the sunspot cycle observations do not extend infinitely long in time there are going to be «end - effects».

If global warming does slow down or partially reverse with a sunspot crash, industrial polluters and reluctant nations could use it as a justification for turning their backs on pollution controls altogether, makingmatters worse in the long run.

There is no room for complacency, Svalgaard warns: «If the Earth does cool during the next sunspot crash and we do nothing, when the sun's magnetic activity returns, global warming will return with a vengeance.»

What part of «the correlation between sunspot number and temperatures the last 128 years is tiny» did you not understand?

The study you reference (Solanki et al, 2001) was indeed quite interesting, but unfortunately does not provide solid evidence of what their sunspot record actually implies for long term climate.

Don't take it from me, read the free version (http://www.scribd.com/doc/336488/nature02995), but AFAICT: The C - 14 sampling is (mostly) decadal, and the reconstruction represents a 10 - year average sunspot number.

Also, does the reconstruction represent the average sunspot count in a cycle, or the peak count (as represented, for example, here)?

You are confusing the 11 years sunspot (solar irradiance) cycle which does indeed have very small effect on temperature, with longer term sunspot (solar irradiance) cycles than can effect temperatures over periods more like 50 years and up to approx. 0.5 degrees maximum.

Patrick Henry, the sunspot issue is a non-issue — and the other variables do not significantly impact climate, although they do heavily impact satellite telecommunications.

In reality there is a huge diversity of opinion within the skeptic side, like: it's cooling; it's warming (but not as much as GISSTemp says); whatever the temperature is doing, it's caused by cosmic rays, or PDO, or sunspots, or recovery from the LIA...; CO2 is a greenhouse gas (but the feedbacks are negative); CO2 is not a greenhouse gas.....

Phnunny Physics, bu please look at GRACE imagery and sunspot records, magnetic fluctuation records, and compare the pattern of ripples and waves on the surface of the earth, and ask yourself have you ever seen them before, do you see them as ripples in «speed of existence».
