From another life....

Department of there is nothing new under the sun:

Reviews of Geophys. and Space. Sci. 16 (1978) 400

Dickson [1975] suggested that solar related fluctuations in some aspect of cloudiness may connect solar activity to the meteorology of the lower atmosphere. He thought that this connection might occur via the effect of cosmic ray induced ionization on aerosol and cloud condensation nuclei and thus on the radiative properties of clouds. p403

Dickinson Bull Am Meteorol. Soc 56 (1975) 1240.


Somewhat better than Nigel Calder and the Revenge of the Killer Cosmic Rays

Cosmic rays are warming Earth,
I read it in news.
Polar bears are losing hairs,
And Eskimos have the blues.

The whole damed world has gone to hell,
And never will come back.
I wish those aliens would just go away,
And call off their attack.

Sorry, left out an important word:

Cosmic rays are warming Earth,
I read it in the news.
Polar bears are losing hairs,
And Eskimos have the blues.

The whole damed world has gone to hell,
And never will come back.
I wish those aliens would just go away,
And call off their attack.

If you are right he made a very accurate hypothesis, and now Svensmark has proved it.

Evil stasi/gulag IPCC and Realclimate can resign!

Magnus, you are obviously not on the right distribution list. Take a look here and here, oh and while you are at it here
