NATURE Study: Sunshine Hours, Cloud Cover In Europe Follow Atlantic Cycles, Not CO2
By P Gosselin on 29. January 2025
More cloudy days forecast for 2050… in sync with the AMO… nothing to do with CO2
Hat-tip: Klimanachrichten
In a recent paper published in Nature here, German researchers Horst-Joachim Lüdecke, Gisela-Müller Plath and Sebastian Lüning analyzed changes in sunshine duration by using modern statistical methods for a total of seven monthly time series of sunshine durations going back 122 to a maximum of 145 years.
The aim of the study was to identify possible correlations of sunshine duration with climate drivers.
Powerful climate-changing oceanic cycles
Among the most important cyclical drivers are ocean cycles. For example, El Niño in the Pacific, the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). These influence the weather developments in Europe and impact temperatures, precipitation and other weather or climate parameters over large distances.
