Episode #102: Solar Variability - Flares, Mass Ejections, Cosmic Rays, Comets
6January 10, 2024
Summary
This episode of The Randall Carlson Podcast delves into a recent paper on tree-ring studies revealing solar influence on Earth's climate. It highlights the work of Gerard Bond, whose contributions to our understanding of North Atlantic climate cycles are often overlooked. The discussion explores the implications of explosive solar events, including Miyake Events, and their connection to Earth's climate dynamics.
Key Takeaways
- 1Tree-ring studies from France show spikes of cosmogenic markers correlated with Greenland ice-core records.
- 2Gerard Bond's 2001 paper discusses North Atlantic climate cycles and is referenced but often ignored.
- 3The role of the Sun in climate science has been robustly supported since solar observatories were established.
- 4Miyake Events are significant solar phenomena linked to explosive solar activity influencing Earth's environment.
- 5The podcast features contributions from notable figures, including Kyle and Russ from Brothers of the Serpent.
