Changes in the Sun’s Surface to Bring Next Climate Change
Space and Science.net ^ | January 2, 2008 | PRESS RELEASE: SSRC 1-2008

Posted on 01/12/2008 10:24:01 AM PST by SamAdams76

Today, the Space and Science Research Center, (SSRC) in Orlando, Florida announces that it has confirmed the recent web announcement of NASA solar physicists that there are substantial changes occurring in the sun’s surface. The SSRC has further researched these changes and has concluded they will bring about the next climate change to one of a long lasting cold era.

Today, Director of the SSRC, John Casey has reaffirmed earlier research he led that independently discovered the sun’s changes are the result of a family of cycles that bring about climate shifts from cold climate to warm and back again.

“We today confirm the recent announcement by NASA that there are historic and important changes taking place on the sun’s surface. This will have only one outcome - a new climate change is coming that will bring an extended period of deep cold to the planet. This is not however a unique event for the planet although it is critically important news to this and the next generations. It is but the normal sequence of alternating climate changes that has been going on for thousands of years. Further according to our research, this series of solar cycles are so predictable that they can be used to roughly forecast the next series of climate changes many decades in advance. I have verified the accuracy of these cycles’ behavior over the last 1,100 years relative to temperatures on Earth, to well over 90%.”

As to what these changes are Casey says, “The sun’s surface flows have slowed dramatically as NASA has indicated. This process of surface movement, what NASA calls the “conveyor belt” essentially sweeps up old sunspots and deposits new ones. NASA’s studies have found that when the surface movement slows down, sunspot counts drop significantly. All records of sunspot counts and other proxies of solar activity going back 6,000 years clearly validates our own findings that when we have sunspot counts lower then 50 it means only one thing - an intense cold climate, globally. NASA says the solar cycle 25, the one after the next that starts this spring will be at 50 or lower. The general opinion of the SSRC scientists is that it could begin even sooner within 3 years with the next solar cycle 24. What we are saying today is that my own research and that of the other scientists at the SSRC verifies that NASA is right about one thing – a solar cycle of 50 or lower is headed our way. With this next solar minimum predicted by NASA, what I call a “solar hibernation,” the SSRC forecasts a much colder Earth just as it has transpired before for thousands of years. If NASA is the more accurate on the schedule, then we may see even warmer temperatures before the bottom falls out. If the SSRC and other scientists around the world are correct then we have only a few years to prepare before 20-30 years of lasting and possibly dangerous cold arrive.”

When asked about what this will mean to the average person on the street, Casey was firm. “The last time this particular cycle regenerated was over 200 years ago. I call it the “Bi-Centennial Cycle” solar cycle. It took place between 1793 and 1830, the so-called Dalton Minimum, a period of extreme cold that resulted in what historian John D. Post called the ‘last great subsistence crisis.’ With that cold came massive crops losses, food riots, famine and disease. I believe this next climate change will be much stronger and has the potential to once more cause widespread crop losses globally with the resultant ill effects. The key difference for this next Bi-Centennial Cycle’s impact versus the last is that we will have over 8 billion mouths to feed in the next coldest years where as we had only 1 billion the last time. Among other effects like social and economic disruption, we are facing the real prospect of the ‘perfect storm of global food shortages’ in the next climate change. In answer to the question, everyone on the street will be affected.”

Given the importance of the next climate change Casey was asked whether the government has been notified. “Yes, as soon as my research revealed these solar cycles and the prediction of the coming cold era with the next climate change, I notified all the key offices in the Bush administration including both parties in the Senate and House science committees as well as most of the nation’s media outlets. Unfortunately, because of the intensity of coverage of the UN IPCC and man made global warming during 2007, the full story about climate change is very slow in getting told. These changes in the sun have begun. They are unstoppable. With the word finally starting to get out about the next climate change, hopefully we will have time to prepare. Right now, the newly organized SSRC is the leading independent research center in the US and possibly worldwide, that is focused on the next climate change. Some of the world’s brightest scientists, also experts in solar physics and the next climate change have joined with me. In the meantime we will do our best to spread the word along with NASA and others who can see what is about to take place for the Earth’s climate. Soon, I believe this will be recognized as the most important climate story of this century.”

It's time to start drilling.

A person might consider retiring to Alaska, but coming to Alaska looking for serious employment is somewaht iffy at this point.

We are retired but I think I would have to be a summer resident of Alaska. I spent a week deer hunting in Canada when it was 20 below zero and I thought I would die. LOL! Winter here is wonderful ,it is the summers I would like to avoid.

It has warmed up this afternoon to -23. Weatherman says maybe -40 tomorrow. It’s been -40 someplace in Alaska all winter and here, too a month ago. Warmest in the past month is about -3, and it gets to grinding on you if you have to deal with machinery.

[How do you know there is more than one person at the center?] The text refers to multiple scientist. Granted names are not included unless you take the link at the bottom to the nasa site. You then find multiple persons linked to solar physics

The text says this:

The general opinion of the SSRC scientists is that it could begin even sooner within 3 years with the next solar cycle 24. What we are saying today is that my own research and that of the other scientists at the SSRC

So who are these scientists? Any research center that's worth it's salt will brag about it's associates, with full resumes.

The text also says:

John Casey has reaffirmed earlier research he led that independently discovered the sun’s changes

Ok. But I found this at Earthfiles.com:

Dr. Hathaway is now one of the top solar astrophysicists in the world. He was surprised last week in the beginning of January 2008, to learn that his own solar physics research was being used by a non-scientist named John Casey in an Orlando, Florida company calling itself “Space and Science Research Center.” SSRC recently distributed an alarming press release on the internet entitled “Changes in the Sun’s Surface to Bring Next Climate Change.” The press release warned there will be a global food shortage in the next Solar Cycle 25 (approximately 2018 - 2029).

[question from earthfiles.com] THAT WILL BE CALLED SOLAR CYCLE 25 AND THERE HAS BEEN A PRESS RELEASE THAT HAS BEEN CIRCULATING ON THE WEB FOR THE LAST WEEK OR SO IN 2008 FROM AN ORGANIZATION CALLED “SPACE AND SCIENCE RESEARCH CENTER (SSRC) ” IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA. THE DIRECTOR IS JOHN CASEY. THEY HAVE RELEASED INFORMATION SAYING THEY EXPECT SOLAR CYCLE 25 TO BE SO LOW IN SUNSPOTS THAT IT WILL PLUNGE THE EARTH INTO A COOLING PERIOD THAT COULD JEOPARDIZE FOOD CROPS GLOBALLY. COULD YOU COMMENT ON HIS HYPOTHESIS?

[answer] I find it highly doubtful. First of all, he bases his prediction for a small Cycle 25 on my own work. I’m well familiar with my own work! This was work where we had looked at the drift rate of sunspots on the sun and from that inferred flows that contribute to how the sun makes sunspot cycles. That flow was particularly slow during this last Cycle 23 – in fact, slower than any of the previous 12 cycles.

I don't have any doubt that this guy Casey is some kind of crank. He's quoting research from this guy Hathaway, a genuine Astrophysicist PhD, but Hathaway apparently doesn't know who Casey is. If Casey had been capable of doing this kind of work independently, and had published anything, Hathaway would probably have his phone number in his cell phone. If they were doing research in something this related, they would no doubt have communicated long ago.

This "Space and Science Research Center" sounds like the Discovery Institute that's trying to sell Intelligent Design. The DI has PR flacks, talk radio guys and lawyers, but not a single staff scientist doing work at the institute. They do however manage to raise lots of donation money from rich conservatives that don't know any better.

I'd love for Global Warming to be shown to be BS, and discoveries that the Sun controls our climate rather than humans. But this SSRC press release is "Junk Science" in the truest sense of the term.

Hey Dr Who 2...

If you've got an hour and 15 minutes, I would highly recommend watching The Great Global Warming Swindle from Brit Channel 4. It presents the case for sun spot activity affecting the earth's climate.

The fact that the film won't be shown in the U.S. and that it's caused Goreys to go apopoletic suggests everyone must see it.

I'd like to see more than a press release from one guy.

I agree.

They have also moved into the area of psychological terminology giving the impression of more than a touch of self-consciousness to the planet and implying that we are causing mild depression to that entity.

Not only that, but the Internet, the chicken, the egg, Marxism, the pregnant chad with dimples, the solar system, history, time, the calorie, CO2, shade, snow, etc. just to name a few.

How could I forget!

His address is "4700 Millenia Blvd, suite 175" in Orlando. Google turns up all kinds of single-web page companies using that address from computer training to real estate brokers to a charity for the blind to a college offering degrees to to a real estate appraisal service to a mortage loan company and so on and so on and so on. I stopped looking after the first four Google results pages. God only knows how many more there are.

But they're not going to convince anyone until they can get some real people and real science to back them up.

None of that was required to get the whole man-made global warming scam started.

Interesting dual standard.

Seems the video has already been pulled from your link.

You had better lock your doors and hide under your bed. The global warming police have taken a bead on you...

My train of thought is rather simplistic about this,

but if the sun’s magnetic sphere of influance is in flux, & with our iron metal core & magnetic fields, I can see the temp. change due to the movement of these. Like the way that we get electricity by moving a magnetic field around a metal core and windings around the core. One of the by-products of this is heat, ergo climate change. and we did not do a thing to do this either...

JUST IMHO!!

There is a great deal of research claiming to verify AGW. I don't think it's valid, because the CO2 issue is far too complex to be modeled with validity. But claiming that science wasn't done that supported AGW is absolutely not true.

The propsed mechanism that does seem to make some sense is that additional solar activity "blows away" cosmic radiation we get from interstellar space. That cosmic radiation has been demonstated to trigger clouds on earth, thus cooling it. So high solar activity, although not directly giving us any meaningful energy from the sun, nevertheless changes the climate because it prevents cloud formation.

It's an interesting proposition, and has some experimental and measurement backup to it. But it will take significantly more study before the conclusions are bullet proof.

Like I said that it is only my humble opion. Can I prove this not really, it is just my gut feeling, but I have found most answers to the most complex problems are really simple, just the scientest make it sound diffacault to understand.
I like to work on the K.I.S.S. [keep it simple stupid].
