Solar radiation, sea surface temperature and global warming Abstract: Solar Radiation income (R) increases Sea Surface Temperature (SST), that in turn decreases the solubility of the greenhouse gases and increases the Evaporation (E), responsible respectively of the increase of the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases and water vapour (WV) both increasing the global air Temperature (T). This paper shows that the variations of SST, related to R, explain all the examined past cycles of T and that the mankind activity contributes to the recent global warming by much less than 15%.
