CL1.05

Cyclical natural climate variability throughout the Holocene
Convener: Michael Asten  | Co-Convener: Nicola Scafetta 

This session highlights quasi cyclic variations detectable in any kind of proxy and instrumental
climate records (e.g. referring to glaciation oscillations, sea-level variability, temperature
evolution, etc.) throughout the Holocene up to present times. The emphasis is put on natural climatic
variations from the interannual to the multi-millennial range (~2 years to ~10000 years). We
invite studies showing empirical evidence for such oscillations by stressing the applicable
methodologies for time-series analysis and their robustness. Hypotheses on the attribution
of observed oscillations to mechanisms of internal (e.g. ENSO variability) or external
(e.g. solar or astronomical) forcing are strongly encouraged. Models using these oscillations
to reconstruct and hindcast past climates and forecast future climatic evolutions at both the
global and regional scales are welcome.
