| Session Description |
This is the general session of talks within the ST Section covering topics on the Sun and/or Heliosphere that are not suited to any of the other sessions available. In addition, talks based on or around solar diagnostic techniques, the related atomic physics and spectroscopy, space climate, solar variability, or Helioseismology are also welcomed into this session including abstracts related to all aspects of solar irradiance as well as studies on climate change (local and/or global) that can be attributed to, at least in part, solar variability. The Sun varies in brightness over differing time scales. There is evidence that some climate change on Earth can be attributed to solar variability. Variations in solar radiation output beyond that of the solar cycle are typically not well known. |
