10 thoughts on “Has anybody seen any recent sunspots ?”

1. Warwick,

   I must confess I’m conflicted between wanting to prove climate modellers wrong and not wishing a protracted period of global cooling on anyone.

2. There is a paper at Global Warming Skeptic where Zhin et al deconvoluted the apparent “global” temperature signal. A couple of the more interesting modes have periods of respectively ~ 60 years and one “of a yet to be determined longer wavelength.” They conclude that we’ve reached a peak and warming and are to expreience a notable cooling starting essentially now.

3. “peak OF warming” sorry about that ….

4. Sunspot numbers are reported at sidc.oma.be/products/ri_hemispheric/

   I don’t think any high latitude spots have yet appeared.

5. Day to day solar activity is summarized at www.dxlc.com/solar/

6. The link below explains the influence of the Sun and sunspots better than anthing I have read peviously,but it requires a new paradigm shift of understanding of the cosmos. www.holoscience.com/news.php?article=8gfbewe7

7. My Fellow Skeptic Tom-Bolger has posted an interesting graph on the web relating temperature changes to sunspot and cosmic rays

8. Tom,
   This site from Climatescience.org.nz has Svensmark’s article on cosmic ray cloud formation and correlating graphs for temp and solar activity for all periods, historical and geological.

9. Electrical heating of the planets? The Auroras not just a pretty show,see thunderbolts.info/tpod/00current.htm The Electrical Heating of Saturn, March 12 2007, look up Archive of The Picture Of the Day (TPOD) after today

10. If you haven’t been appraised then view this – from a Channel 4 production on Climate Change shown last Thursday video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9005566792811497638&q=great+global+warming+swindle&hl=en
    Strongly recommended – and convincing.
