manacker, it only takes
a long weak solar cycle, a super-El Nino at the beginning, La Nina dominance at the end, and the negative PDO phase to cancel out a decadal trend, as we see.
Not exact matches
During
weak solar cycles, McIntosh and colleagues suggest, this process takes
longer.
The planets may have a spin - orbit coupling effect on the Sun which affects its rotation rate, which would then affect the
solar dynamo and sunspot production, and therefore the build up of magnetic flux at the poles, and the length of a
solar cycle: if the
solar cycle is
weaker with less sunspots, it'll take
longer for the build up of opposing flux to reach the point when it flips the poles.
What I do know for sure is that with a negative PDO, a
weak solar cycle and an AMO that will be heading south soon; we shouldn't have
long to wait to get a resonably accurate attribution of natural and anthropogenic causes.
Concerning space weather, future studies should focus on analysis of the
long - lasting and very deep
solar cycle minimum and related very low level of geomagnetic activity in order to estimate its influence on
long - term trends in the ionosphere, particularly on future trends, as we can expect
weak solar cycles in the coming decades.
Though there is no real evidence to suggest that sun activity has any
long - term climate effects, these
weak solar cycles certainly won't help our situation and may help facilitate conditions leading to colder winters.
Because the Little Ice Age coincided with a
long period of
weak solar cycles.
