Changes in solar activity based on radiocarbon data and climate variations in the interval 8000 - 1000 BC

Abstract

Abstract This work examines the change in the activity of the Sun based on the reconstruction of the heliospheric modulation potential in the time interval 8000 - 1000 BC. Reconstructions of this potential were obtained using radiocarbon data, taking into account the influence of changes in the Earth’s climate. A comparison is made of the variations in the activity of the Sun with the global surface temperature. It is shown that variations in global temperature during this period could be the result of changes in solar activity. So high solar activity could lead to recorded temperature maximums around 7000 and 5300 BC. The drop in temperature in the range 3000-1000BC could be the result of low solar activity.
