2) The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate: A Workshop Report
An important topic - and you can freely download a PDF!
Description:
On September 8-9, 2011, experts in solar physics, climate models, paleoclimatology, and atmospheric science assembled at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado for a workshop to consider the Sun's variability over time and potential Sun-climate connections.
While it does not provide findings, recommendations, or consensus on the current state of the science, The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate: A Workshop Reportbriefly introduces the primary topics discussed by presenters at the event. As context for these topics, the summary includes background information on the potential Sun-climate connection, the measurement record from space, and potential perturbations of climate due to long-term solar variability. This workshop report also summarizes some of the science questions explored by the participants as potential future research endeavors.
3) @MGhydro's Excellent List of Water Publications
Matthew Garcia has done an excellent job puling together about 40 publications on water and related topics. This is a great list and a real service to us all.
Enjoy!
