This overview paper highlights the successes of the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) on
board the Aura satellite spanning a period of nearly 14 years. Data from OMI has been used …

Satellite remote sensing has provided major advances in understanding the climate system
and its changes, by quantifying processes and spatio-temporal states of the atmosphere …

This chapter assesses the scientific literature describing expectations for near-term climate
(present through mid-century). Unless otherwise stated," near-term" change and the …

Understanding the influence of solar variability on the Earth's climate requires knowledge of
solar variability, solar‐terrestrial interactions, and the mechanisms determining the response …

This paper describes the recommended solar forcing dataset for CMIP6 and highlights
changes with respect to CMIP5. The solar forcing is provided for radiative properties, namely …

In order to evaluate how much Total Solar Irradiance (TSI) has influenced Northern
Hemisphere surface air temperature trends, it is important to have reliable estimates of both …

The brightness of the Sun varies on all timescales on which it has been observed, and there
is increasing evidence that this has an influence on climate. The amplitudes of such …

We assess the importance of factors that determine the intensity of UV radiation at the
Earth's surface. Among these, atmospheric ozone, which absorbs UV radiation, is of …

An influence of solar irradiance variations on Earth's surface climate has been repeatedly
suggested, based on correlations between solar variability and meteorological variables …

The lack of long and reliable time series of solar spectral irradiance (SSI) measurements
makes an accurate quantification of solar contributions to recent climate change difficult …
