In the search for a physical mechanism that could account for reported correlations between solar activity parameters and climate, we have investigated the global cloud cover observed by satellites. We find that the observed variation of 34% of the global cloud cover during the recent solar cycle is

The recent ®nding of a signi®cant correlation between variations of the cosmic ray ¯ux and the global cloud coverage by Svensmark and Friis-Christensen (1997; hereafter abbreviated S&FC) lent countenance to the idea that cosmic rays might aect the Earth's weather and climate, which was suggested 40
