Global Cooling Is Around the Corner - Solar Cycle # 26 Is The First Phase

Mounting scientific evidence points to a solar minimum getting underway in Solar Cycle #26. By 2030, we should see meaningful cooling begin and accelerate through Solar Cycles #26 and #27. Significant threats to food production, extreme weather events, increased earthquakes and volcanic eruptions will occur along with persistently lower temperatures due to lack of solar radiance and the Sun's oversized effect on our magnetic field.  

Here's an excerpt on Solar Cycle #25 from a broader climate article (https://electroverse.info/finland-freezes-iceland-cold-snowy-peru-u...) posted by Cap Allon @ Electroverse.info:

SOLAR CYCLE 25

Below is my abridged version of a ‘solar polar fields’ update from solen.info, released January 4, 2024:

The development of the solar polar field strength throughout a sunspot cycle can be used to predict the magnitude of the next cycle and the peak of the current one. Polar field reversals typically occur within a year of sunspot maximum. It is not uncommon for the northern and southern polar fields to have significant differences in field strength and develop asynchronously over time.

The Wilcox Solar Observatory has been collecting solar polar field data since 1975.

Non-filtered data is shown below:

The next chart offers only the filtered (by a 20 nHz lowpass filter) field strength data.

Vertical lines representing field reversals and sunspot cycle min/max have been added for ease of reference.

For Solar Cycle 24, the northern polar field changed polarity first in June 2012, then weakened and was near neutral by April 2014. The southern polar field reversed in July 2013. During the previous similar polarity reversal in 1989-1991, the northern polar field reversed 14 months prior to the southern polar field reversal. The northern polar field peaked in September 2019 while the southern polar field reached its peak in November 2015.

The strength of the polar fields at their peak during Cycle 24 indicated that Solar Cycle 25 could reach a magnitude somewhere between those of cycles 23 and 24. The northern polar field reversed polarity for the first time in April 2023, with the southern polar field reversing in October 2023, and the total field in November 2023.

Key takeaway: “The SC25 solar max may already be in the past as the 365-day smoothed solar flux peaked on June 27, 2023.”

If that is indeed the case then it’s only down from here, all the way to Solar Cycle 26–which, as I have long contended, could be where the next ‘Grand Solar Minimum’ commences proper, where the chill of solar minimum returns struggle, strife and hardship to swaths of the planet as the cold sets in and the harvests fail.

For us to already find ourselves on the downward-slope of SC25, well… that’s a concerning prospect.

For time immemorial, prolonged bouts of low solar activity = global cooling.

NASA: “From 1650 to 1710, temperatures across much of the Northern Hemisphere plunged when the Sun entered a quiet phase now called the Maunder Minimum. During this period, very few sunspots appeared on the surface of the Sun, and the overall brightness of the Sun decreased slightly. … Europe and North America went into a deep freeze: alpine glaciers extended over valley farmland; sea ice crept south from the Arctic; and the famous canals in the Netherlands froze regularly—an event that is rare today.”

Temp change between 1780 (a year of normal solar activity) and 1680 (a year within the depths of the Maunder Minimum).
And note: as Earth’s overall temperature trends colder, not all regions experience the chill. As visualized by this ‘Maunder Minimum Reconstruction Map’ by NASA, areas such as the Arctic, Alaska and the North Atlantic actually warm.

Professor Valentina Zharkova, with her doctorate in astrophysics, has published numerous papers on the topic, specifically regarding the sun’s double dynamo effect; research that mainstream outlets have been quick to discredit due, in no small part, to Zharkova’s complete disregard for today’s CO2 GHG groupthink.

Zharkova has long-emphasized that ‘global warming’ will become irrelevant in the next three decades during the modern Grand Solar Minimum, which she says started in 2020 and will last until 2053.

According to her research, the coldest temperatures will be set in starting at tail end of Solar Cycle 25, through Cycle 26 (the least active cycle) and through Cycle 26 and 27, “and we will feel it through a lack of vegetation,” she states.

“Starting after the active period of Solar Cycle 25, from the second half of this decade [2020s] until the early 2050s, Earth will experience exceptional cold, extreme weather, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions,” she contends, pointing to 2030 as being the year when the cooling will be obvious to even the staunchest AGW proponent, with the subsequent decade (the 2030s) being “so cold that it will result in a severe food shortage.”
