Approaching 'grand solar minimum' could cause global cooling
There’s a lot of evidence mounting that solar cycle 25 will usher in a new grand solar minimum. Since about October 2005, when the sun’s magnetic activity went into a…
The challenges of trying to reconstruct changes in Total Solar Irradiance (TSI) since 1700: A response to Chatzistergos (2024)’s remake of Hoyt & Schatten (1993)
He seems to have created it as a parody of a TSI reconstruction. Instead, he argues that the scientific community should stick to using the SATIRE reconstructions of the MPS…

The Sun-Climate Effect: The Winter Gatekeeper Hypothesis (I). The search for a solar signal
by Javier Vinós & Andy May “Probably no subfield of meteorology has had as much effort devoted to it as the effects of solar variability on weather and climate. And…
Centennial Total Solar Irradiance Variation
We have obtained a new TSI reconstruction from 1700 to 2020.
Solar Variations Controversy
The impact of solar variations on the climate is uncertain and subject to substantial debate. However, you would not infer from the IPCC assessment reports that there is debate or…
