paraphrasing forces of ignorance &/or deception:
“[...] solar has NO EFFECT on the climate.”

TOTAL BS.

Some want us to believe that the ravages of man have marred & scarred an abused Earth to the point where she is so disfigured & hideous THAT WE SHOULD NOT EVEN LOOK AT HER NATURAL FEATURES.

Careful inspection reveals that she remains a STUNNING natural beauty.
…And she’s having a VERY interesting relationship with Father Sun:

Solar-Terrestrial-Climate Weave

Some of you may think you’ve seen that graph before. You have NOT. It’s a brand new graph using different methods. The OBSERVATION ((this is NOT abstract theory)) is PATENTLY ROBUST.

For laymen who don’t understand the implications, the weave is perceived by the forces of ignorance &/or deception as is the kid in this video:

Like the kid in the video (perceived as supernatural and witch-hunted) the weave is INDESTRUCTIBLE (see how the video ends).

Suggestion for the forces of ignorance &/or deception:
In a move of ruthlessly aggressive desperation, resort to data vandalism of an unconscionable nature.

Suggestion for all Earth, nature, truth, & beauty lovers:
Promptly archive these illuminating data: ftp://ftp.iers.org/products/eop/long-term/c04_08/iau2000/eopc04_08_IAU2000.62-now

DirkH (May 20, 2012 at 4:28 pm) commented/asked about Solar-Terrestrial-Climate Weave http://i49.tinypic.com/2jg5tvr.png “Fascinating, Paul – the checkerboard pattern repeats after 22 years (a full magnetic reversal cycle). What variable do you show? Simple temperature anomaly?”

Not temperature anomaly. Basically you’re looking at normalized lunisolar-neutralized Schwabe-extent semi-annual-grain global-WIND anomalies, which inform about the equator-pole temperature GRADIENTS which drive them.

The weave can be isolated from BOTH daily atmospheric angular momentum (AAM) AND daily length of day (LOD) records using DOZENS of methods. IT’S ROBUST. You can be SURE that anyone objecting to its existence is operating from a base of ignorance &/or deception.

Piers Corbyn works with the event series which underpin the weave. NASA has had opportunity to be aware of the existence of the weave since at least 1997.

There are clean, beautiful cross-scale connections to both interannual & multidecadal timescales.

See my reply to DirkH.

I sense your confusion loud & clear on how ENSO & multidecadal variations relate to the solar-terrestrial weave.

Put that aside for a minute and go back to the simple basics of the terrestrial year.

First, concentrate on understanding equator-pole gradients and their effects on semi-annual winds.
