The acknowledged role of sunspots and cosmic rays in forming clouds has been fertile ground for climate deniers, who have cast doubt on whether anthropogenic climate change (in other words, change caused by humans) is occurring at all.

Turns out scientists from the prestigious CERN laboratories are now suggesting that 50 - 100 % of the global warming we've been seeing may actually be caused by interactions between cosmic rays and the Earth's atmosphere.

How these cyclical climate take place is still unknown, but they «are most likely caused by variations in the solar wind and associated magnetic fields that affect the flux of cosmic rays incident on cloudiness, and thereby control the amount of sunlight reaching the earth's surface and thus the climate.»

By the way, low clouds in darkness increase surface temperature, sort of like the inverse property of commonly understood Cosmic ray effect, not causing a cooling because there are more CR's, but rather a warming, which only low clouds in total darkness can do, so the probable CR temperature signal gets cancelled from one latitude dark vs bright region to the next.

«Because the primary source of ions in the global troposphere is galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), their role in atmospheric nucleation is of considerable interest as a possible physical mechanism for climate variability caused by the Sun.»

Instead of trying to understand those, this new null ignores all natural causes (cosmic rays, volcanos, carbon black, land use changes, methane releases, etc. — and basically says humans caused whatever happens, by default).

But if they can be linked to warmer conditions globally, then these would be most likely caused by solar variations or cosmic rays, a recovery from the LIA and certainly not due to increases in CO2 levels, which aren't caused by human emissions anyway.

We now recognize more of the natural climatic variations caused by the interaction of five highly nonlinear coupled chaotic processes: earth's atmosphere, oceans, volcanoes, solar weather, and galactic cosmic rays (Curry 2016, Curry 2017).

Salvatore, this I don't understand: «The galactic cosmic ray issue is not just about if it may cause an increase in clouds but how it may contribute to an increase in major volcanic activity...» I'm not aware of any physical mechanism of controlling ERFvolvano by ERFsolar.

We propose that the cycle may be caused by modulation of cosmic ray (CR) flux by the Solar system vertical oscillation (64 My period) in the galaxy, the galactic north - south anisotropy of CR production in the galactic halo / wind / termination shock (due to the galactic motion toward the Virgo cluster), and the shielding by galactic magnetic fields.

It has been proposed that Earth's climate could be affected by changes in cloudiness caused by variations in the intensity of galactic cosmic rays in the atmosphere.

Although it is generally believed that the increase in the mean global surface temperature since industrialization is caused by the increase in green house gases in the atmosphere, some people cite solar activity, either directly or through its effect on cosmic rays, as an underestimated contributor to such global warming.

(There's also the possibility of a warming trend caused by some other factor, such as cosmic rays — as with chance variation, unlikely but not impossible).

Cosmic rays are deflected and guided by the Earth's field, but the small disturbances caused by the solar wind are not enough to have any measurable effect of the cosmic rays entering the Earth's atmosphere and thus also not on the cCosmic rays are deflected and guided by the Earth's field, but the small disturbances caused by the solar wind are not enough to have any measurable effect of the cosmic rays entering the Earth's atmosphere and thus also not on the ccosmic rays entering the Earth's atmosphere and thus also not on the clouds.

In principle you are totally correct that there should be differences between global warming caused by GHG and global warming caused by solar activity through the cosmic ray link, or through other links.

There is no direct correlation or coincidence over observed time to indicate that it is «most likely caused by variations in the solar wind and associated magnetic fields that affect the flux of cosmic rays incident on the earth's atmosphere»

For example he discusses the recent CERN paper by Kirkby (he even misspells the name as Kirby as all the deniers do) and claims that the paper «is providing scientific evidence that low solar activity causes more cosmic rays which indirectly increases cloud cover and reduces solar penetration, followed by cooling».

Thus if the two mid latitude jets move equatorward at the same time as the ITCZ moves closer to the equator the combined effect on global albedo and the amount of solar energy able to penetrate the oceans will be substantial and would dwarf the other proposed effects on albedo from changes in cosmic ray intensity generating changes in cloud totals as per Svensmark and from suggested changes caused in upper cloud quantities by changes in atmospheric chemistry involving ozone which various other climate sceptics propose.

He ignores the possibility that decadal variability may be caused by external forcing such as cosmic rays which are known to cause increased rates of aerosol nucleation.
