One of the big questions in solar physics is why the Sun's activity follows a regular cycle of 11 years. Researchers from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), an independent German research institute, now present new findings, indicating that the tidal forces of Venus, Earth and Jupiter influence the solar magnetic field, thus governing the solar cycle.

Try actually reading the article. Recall that the Sun is not a rigid body.
Have you read the article?
There’s no connection that I’ve heard of between the sun’s magnetic field and the earth’s. That doesn’t mean there isn’t one.
I stopped there. There are lies, and damned lies. And THEN there are statistics. But THEN EVEN AFTER THAT there are computer simulations.
The liberals call the latter 'science.'
A guy at work said today (software developers) "After 20 years of sofware, I know that there is no such thing as a correct dataset." Now THERE we're talking about people trying to be accurate - not bribed on federal grants.
A computer simulation takes a dataset, pours gas into its tank, steps on the accelerator, drives 4 million days, and you expect that wherever that dang car stops is indicative of something? It's a roulette wheel. Spin it enough times and eventually you'll land where you want. Rig the wheel, and you'll land where you want enough to look like you know something.
Nope - hard enough just to get just the dataset close when you're being accurate and honest and smart.
I'm not tooling on your post actually, I'm tooling on the climate simulators. But I'm really tooling on all computer simulations that don't begin with a provable, exact, repeatable, complete, knowable dataset.
I read their theory. That's enough.
And those moving charged particles flying through space from the sun... create a mag field. Seems reasonable that these sources would interact with the Earth’s mag field. Must reach some level of equilibrium.
They are electrically charged, and so some of them get trapped in earth’s magnetic field forming the Van Allen belt. Others get pulled into the north and south magnetic poles. But do they form a magnetic field of their own? I don’t think so.
LOL!!! I thought this was going to be a Catholic thread. Sounds just like the mindless ramblings of Bergoglio.
That article looks like a waste of my time. Look at the sun. Look at the little, tiny planets. No way is our gravitational pull going to cause the slightest ripple on a burning ball of flame a hundred times bigger and 92 million miles away.
Great links... Thank you bump.
I always understand better when there are pictures.
Nice links.. Adding to my collection.
Thanks!
True...but that same conducting medium is also moving within the sun's field, therefore it too must generate currents in said conducting medium...a mechanism that allows for direct transfer of solar energy into the earth's energy balance that does not involve photons. The cause and required effect are basic simple physics, but how does it cascade through the complexity of the earths ecosystem.
For magnetic dipoles like the sun, field strength decreases as the inverse cube of the distance. This means that the sun’s magnetic field is extremely weak, almost nonexistent, at earth’s distance. Whatever effect it has on earth is negligible.
yep...How can we work all of this into Global Warming? Oh wait!
Interesting. You use the word “system” a lot. I put forth the proposition that anyone who really believes that humans are making the Earth warmer does not understand the meaning of that word. So start from there when you try to figure how many people understand your ideas.
Hey...quit making sense...not allowed on this thread!
That's almost going to happen this month, according to this article:
Jupiter will get so close to Earth this month its largest moons will be visible with binoculars
Quote:
The planet will reach opposition, the annual occurrence when the Jupiter, Earth and the Sun are arranged in a straight line, with Earth in the center. So, mark your calendars for Monday, as it will be the best time of the year to see it.
Don't know where Venus is, though.
Alright, check HERE. Looks like Venus is off 90 degrees, but Saturn is almost lined up...
