Climate Change: A New Look at the Sun
It is debated in many climate and space weather circles, just how much influence the sun’s solar radiation activity has on earth’s climate. A NASA space instrument called a Total Irradiance Monitor measures exactly this. The BIG NEWS on this is that an improved and extended solar data record will make it easier to understand how fluctuations in the sun’s energy output over time affect temperatures, and how Earth’s climate responds to radiative forcing.
