Persistent Sub-Yearly Chromospheric Variations in Lower Main-Sequence Stars: Tau Booe and alpha Com
TL;DR: A cursory analysis of tau Booe (HD 120136) for cyclic chromospheric activity, based on its 30-yr record of Ca 2 H and K fluxes obtained as part of the HK Project from Mount Wilson Observatory, finds an intermediate, sub-yearly period (approximately 117 d) in chromosphere activity in addition to, and separate from, both its rotation (33 d) and long-term variability.

Large asymmetrical temperature trends at Mount Wilson, California
TL;DR: In this article, a daily time series of temperatures and precipitation from Mount Wilson, California from 1918 to 1998 was analyzed and a large decline in maximum temperature, no change or an upward trend in minimum temperature, and a substantial decline in the diurnal temperature range (DTR).

An Assessment of the Sun-Climate Relation on Time Scales of Decades to Centuries: The Possibility of Total Irradiance Variations
Sallie L. Baliunas,Willie Soon +1 more
TL;DR: Sunlight supplies most of the energy that drives the dynamics of the terrestrial climate as mentioned in this paper, and speculation on the role of changes in the sun and their influence on changes in earth's climate has been ongoing for centuries.

J. C. Shelton,Sallie L. Baliunas +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Atmospheric Compensation Experiment (ACE) was mounted on the 60-inch telescope at Mount Wilson Observatory in California in a program designed to investigate the performance of ACE at an astronomical site and to evaluate the usefulness of adaptive optics for astronomy.
