It is worth noting that Theodor Landscheidt — one of iconoclasts in the «solar - forcing - trumps GHG's» school of European solar physicists — predicted this possible Grand Minimum based on the theory that Gliessberg cycles generated by the Sun's oscillation around it's centre of mass directly affect the Coriolis force perturbing solar plasma flow and the solar dynamo.

I do not think so as it varies greatly depending on grand minima.

If we look over the LIA (1250 - 1850) the gap between grand minima is a lot less than 208 years, this is because of the high strength and longevity of the grand minima that occurred during this period.

A new paper by McCracken, Beer & Steinhilber is published in Solar Physics which aligns itself very strongly with my theory and paper on solar grand minima.

To compound the issue all grand minima epochs are different because the disordered solar path that causes grand minima is also different every time (This is also backed up by Wollf & Patrone).
