Workshop Agenda and Participants - The Effects of Solar Variability on Earth's Climate - page 34

Panel Discussion

3:45 Panel Discussion led by Joanna Haigh and Daniel Baker

1. What is the most recent and/or most compelling evidence of the impact
of solar variability on climate, particularly in the lower atmosphere, over decadal
timescales?
2. What can we learn of the variability of solar irradiance using
paleoclimate records?
3. What can we learn of climate responses to solar variability using
paleoclimate records?
4. Are there any significant climate impacts of solar variability on regional
scales?
5. What are the research directions, additional observations, and/or model
improvements necessary to improve understanding and forecast ability regarding
solar variability and climate, particularly over the solar cycle timescale?
