The principal cause of bi-decadal climatic variation – The Hale cycle, or something else?

Tallbloke hosts a discussion initiated by Paul Vaughan on Earth climate cycles in the order of quasi 20 yr…. Bi – DECADAL
The Bidecadal Oscillation

Is it caused by the solar Hale Cycle as suggested by Tim Channon or is it caused by the velocity of the sun with respect to the solar system barycenter as suggested by Nicola Scafetta?

Paul Vaughan has suggested we hold a discussion on bi-decadal climatic variation, which exhibits quasi-cyclic patterns in various datasets. To get the ball rolling, Paul has kindly given some time to producing some very interesting plots which he has introduced across a few recent threads. This posts puts these in one place and acts as an invitation to those interested in a focussed discussion on the topic.

Paul Vaughan: Wind and Sun – correlation since 1880

How about this !! Correlating the earths wind with solar activity!!
Who would have thought.. !!
Well dome Paul… I see a match!!!.
Now….. to read on…

Paul’Vaughan posted a link to this plot on the tail end of a long running thread which has dropped off the front page now, so I thought I’s give it prominence today. It’s a ‘food for thought’ starter – the main course will be served as and when Paul has time.

It’s all coming together. Both Paul and I have been working on the sunspot integral over the last several years. Back in 2009 I found that by subtracting the average sunspot number at which the ocean neither gains nor loses energy from the monthly value and summing the running total, I could make use of the sunspot integral as a proxy for ocean heat content (OHC).

Following Paul Vaughan

Paul undertakes climate research whilst working at a University l believe
I would like to list some links to his work

Not in any order .( I am not that organised !)

Here is a ‘newby’ posted on tallbloke wordpress blog of course

A seasonal GLOBAL animation of SST. Month by Month. Great work Paul
