Understanding the influence of solar variability on the Earth's climate requires knowledge of
solar variability, solar‐terrestrial interactions, and the mechanisms determining the response …

Variations in solar activity, at least as observed in numbers of sunspots, have been apparent
since ancient times but to what extent solar variability may affect global climate has been far …

Evidence of the effect of external influences on the climate system has continued to
accumulate since the Third Assessment Report (TAR). The evidence now available is …

An updated analysis of observed stratospheric temperature variability and trends is
presented on the basis of satellite, radiosonde, and lidar observations. Satellite data include …

The NCAR Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model, version 3 (WACCM3), is used to
study the atmospheric response from the surface to the lower thermosphere to changes in …

A global stratospheric ozone data set for 1979–2005 is described. Interannual variations are
derived from analysis of Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment (SAGE I and II) profile …

The atmospheric response to the solar cycle has been previously investigated with the Freie
Universität Berlin Climate Middle Atmosphere Model (FUB‐CMAM) using prescribed …

Previous multiple regression analyses of the solar cycle variation of stratospheric ozone are
improved by (1) analyzing three independent satellite ozone data sets with lengths …

The 11‐year solar cycles in ozone and temperature are examined using new simulations of
coupled chemistry climate models. The results show a secondary maximum in stratospheric …

So far, general circulation model studies have not been able to capture the magnitude and
characteristics of the observed 11‐year solar signal in the stratosphere satisfactorily. Here …
