Water Experts Find Earth's Warming, Rainfall Linked to Sun

A team of water experts says the pattern of droughts and floods in
South Africa shows our global warming was triggered by the variability
of the sun's irradiance rather than by human-emitted CO2. They say
variations in South African rainfall patterns are keyed to periodic
reversals of the sun's magnetic field-and to the constantly changing
distance between the sun and the earth as both move through space.

In South Africa, alternate 11-year sunspot cycles produce opposite
rainfall results. One complete "double sun cycle" occurs every 20.8
years: the "first" cycle brings a big flood, followed by a small
drought; the next brings a big drought, followed by a small flood.

Lead author Will Alexander used the double sunspot cycle to publicly
predict the end of major South African droughts in both 1995 and 2006.
He notes that South African droughts have often been broken at 11-year
intervals by severe floods associated with sunspot maxima-as in 1822,
1841, 1863, 1874 and 1885. The research summary appears in the June
2007 issue of the Journal of the South African Institution of Civil
Engineering.

The South Africans' conclusion is reinforced by Dr. Robert Baker of
Australia, who told a recent meeting of the International Geographical
Union that he has found the same 21-year cycle in Australian drought
and rainfall. Baker says "the sun is like a musical instrument,
vibrating in complex patterns," with all of the planets moving in
similar relationships.

H. N. Bhalme and D. A. Mooley published similar conclusions about
India's floods and droughts in the Journal of Applied Meteorology,
September, 1981, based on an Indian flood index compiled from 1891 to
1979. They reported that "a highly significant 22-year cycle in the
flood area index was nearly in phase with the 22-year double sunspot
cycle." Bhalme and Mooley also noted that the western U.S. has a
similar relationship with the double sunspot cycle and severe
flooding.

Clearly, what these water experts are all describing is a global
climate connection with the sun.

The number of sunspots on the sun, and their intensity, varies in a
cycle averaging 11 years. The distance between the sun and the earth
keeps changing slightly and predictably because 1) they move on
slightly varying paths through space; and 2) both bodies accelerate
and decelerate constantly depending on the combined gravitational
forces of the other big planets.

These factors apparently produce the moderate 1,500-year climate cycle
on earth, which was discovered in the Greenland ice cores in 1980s and
has since also been found globally in seabed and lake sediments,
fossil pollen, tree rings and peat bogs.

Earth's recent global warming occurred too early-before 1940-to be
blamed on human CO2 emissions. The net global warming since 1940 is
only 0.2 degrees C, with none at all since 1998. There's little
correlation between the earth's recent temperatures and CO2 levels,
but a strong correlation between the sunspot index and subsequent
changes in our sea-surface temperatures.

The 1,500-year climate cycle shifts temperatures about 2 degrees C
above and then 2 degrees C below the long-term average at the latitude
of Washington and Paris, with greater temperature changes near the
poles. Temperatures change little near the equator, but rainfall
patterns can change greatly; for example, 5,000 years ago the Sahara
was wet enough for grazing and hunting, while Kenya was very dry.

The UN climate change panel has declared the solar variations "too
small" to produce the climate warming of the past 30 years. However, a
recent Danish experiment showed that the solar variations may be
amplified fourfold because they create significant changes in the
earth's cloud cover. More clouds cool the earth by deflecting more of
the sun's heat back into outer space.

The evidence for a sun/climate connection keeps pouring in, while all
we hear from the Kyoto crowd is "The computer models agree with each
other."

Let's say you're right and humans have nothing to do with it. Do you
