Description
Summary:Continuous Measurements of air pollution and meteorological components in Europe within the last 30 years show strong changes between 1987 and 1991. After this event, we call it "Climate Jump II", SO2-based winter smog-alert-systems were cancelled and Ozone-based summer smog-alert-systems were introduced. These changes were caused by a sudden increase of temperature combined with an increase of global radiation. Both were caused by reduction of clouds initiated by a reduction of cosmic rays (neutrons) within the 22nd sunspot period: Sun observations of NASA show a stronger increase of eruptions of protons producing stronger solar winds, which were reducing cosmic radiation by magnetic deflections during this and the following period. The Climate Jump with increasing ground near temperature of about 1.2 °C in Central Europe seems to be sun made. Moreover the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) shows correlation with neutron flux. This leads to the assumption, that there is a causal connection between sunspot controlled cosmic rays and cloudiness, which finally leads during increasing sun activities to increasing temperature and prolongation of growing seasons in Central Europe.
