| Research Abstract |
The climatic effects of cloud formation induced by galactic cosmic rays (CR) has recently become a topic of much discussion. The CR-cloud connection suggests that variations in geomagnetic field intensity could change climate through modulation of CR flux. To verify this hypothesis, we investigated paleoclimate and paleoenvironment for five interglacial periods, and found cooling occurred when the field intensity dropped to 40% increase in CR flux. The climate warmed rapidly when field intensity recovered. We suggest that geomagnetic field intensity can influence global climate through the modulation of CR flux.
