Energetic Particle Forcing of the Northern Hemisphere winter stratosphere: Comparison to solar irradiance forcing

Variation in solar irradiance is considered an important factor in natural climate forcing. Variations in the solar UV in particular are now regarded as a major source of decadal variability in the stratosphere, influencing surface climate through stratosphere-troposphere coupling.<br/>However...
