The stadium wave holds promise in putting into perspective numerous observations of climate behavior, such as regional patterns of decadal variability in drought and hurricane activity, the researchers say, but a complete understanding of past climate variability and projections of future climate change requires integrating the stadium - wave signal with external climate forcing from the sun, volcanoes and anthropogenic forcing.

This is also observed in the changing activity of the Sun.

It seems that in terms of the total amount of energy coming from the sun there is only a very small variation due to the changing level of solar activity during a single cycle.

If it is true that the sun's activity is of great significance in determining the earth's climate, this reduced solar activity could work in the opposite direction to climate change caused by humans.

12 * ICE AGES: More elliptical orbit causes less sunlight to reach Earth — results in ice ages (100,000 yr cycles) * VOLCANIC ACTIVITY: Release ash and aerosols into the atmosphere Reflects sun rays causing cooler temps * SOLAR ENERGY: Cause short term changes Less solar energy can cause small ice ages

In this momentous book, Professor Fritz Vahrenholt and Dr Sebastian Luning demonstrate that the critical cause of global temperature change has been, and continues to be, the sun's activity.

«Since irradiance variations are apparently minimal, changes in the Earth's climate that seem to be associated with changes in the level of solar activity — the Maunder Minimum and the Little Ice age for example — would then seem to be due to terrestrial responses to more subtle changes in the Sun's spectrum of radiative output.

(2) the solar activity is the main driver of the «climate change»; its role (sensitivity in °C / (W / m ²) is understated by IPCC by a factor 10 to 20; IPCC argues from «physical considerations» to restrict the role of the Sun to the sole total solar irradiance (TSI).

The climate has changed many times in the geologic past due to natural causes — including volcanic activity, changes in the sun's intensity, fluctuations in Earth's orbit, and other factors — but none of these can account for the current rise in global temperatures.

It will be hard to identify because, as I have mentioned in my other articles, the filtering of the solar signal through the various oceanic cycles is neither rapid nor straightforward and it appears that the effects are caused not by solar irradiance in itself but rather by changes in the mix of wavelengths and particles from the sun as solar activity varies.

By applying what has been learned about solar radiation changes from the recent measurements from space, we can infer that this gradual build - up in solar activity over several hundred years may have been accompanied by a parallel increase in the radiation received from the Sun.

Since such models can not account for the climate system's apparent sensitivity to small perturbations in solar energy apparently brought about by the very long term changes in the Earth's orbit about the Sun, they may also underestimate climate sensitivity to energy output fluctuations caused by solar activity, even during the eleven - year Schwabe cycle.

If greater changes in solar radiation occur — as seems probable based on what is known of climate and solar activity in the past — the Sun needs to be considered in long - term climate projections.

Some past changes in the climate were driven by the sun burning brighter, or by an increase in volcanic activity.

The strength of the magnetosphere is regulated by the sun (whose activity changes in synchrony with the planets), but perhaps the strength of the Earth's magnetosphere is also regulated directly by the gravitational / magnetic forces of Jupiter and Saturn and the other planets whose gravitational / magnetic tides may stretch or compress the Earth's magnetosphere in some way making it easier or more difficult for the Earth's magnetosphere to deviate the cosmic ray.
