New Paper: The GCR-Cloud Link To Solar-Driven Climate Change Persists Despite The Post-2000 ‘Violation’
By Kenneth Richard on 27. September 2018
The strong correlation between Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) and cloud formation has for decades been postulated as a primary mechanism for solar-driven natural climate change. Concisely, “When the Sun is active fewer cosmic rays reach the Earth and, with fewer low clouds, the world warms up†(Svensmark et al., 2017). Since about 2000, however, this GCR-cloud correlation has been violated (solar activity has declined without accompanying GCR flux), leading many to question the link. A new paper suggests this post-2000 “violation†is actually “not…unexpectedâ€, has occurred previously, and does not undermine the Sun-GCR/cloud explanation for naturally-driven climate change.
