Solar Variability and Planetary Climates Summary

Solar Variability and Planetary Climates by Y. Calisesi

This book provides an updated overview of the processes determining the influence of solar forcing on climate. It discusses in particular the most recent developments regarding the role of aerosols in the climate system and the new insights that could be gained from the investigation of terrestrial climate analogues. The book's structure mirrors that of the ISSI workshop held in Bern in June 2005.
