by National Research Council, Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences, Space Studies Board, Committee on the Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate
Paperback / softback
Description
On September 8-9, 2011, experts in solar physics, climate models, paleoclimatology, and atmospheric science assembled at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado for a workshop to consider the Sun's variability over time and potential Sun-climate connections. While it does not provide findings, recommendations, or consensus on the current state of the science, The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate: A Workshop Report briefly introduces the primary topics discussed by presenters at the event.
As context for these topics, the summary includes background information on the potential Sun-climate connection, the measurement record from space, and potential perturbations of climate due to long-term solar variability.
This workshop report also summarizes some of the science questions explored by the participants as potential future research endeavors.
