The power of the Sun at the Earth, per square metre is called the solar constant and is approximately 1370 watts per square metre (W/m2). The variation in the solar constant has been about 0.1% over a period of about 30 years.
Mean ocean temperature during the last four glacial cycles have changed by as much as 6C.
If solar output is constant during glacial and interglacial periods, why does the mean ocean temperature change by as much as 6C?
Man wasn't around back then.
Was the atmosphere responsible for the ocean warming and cooling by 4C to 6C? If so, how did the atmosphere do it?
Were ocean currents responsible for the ocean warming and cooling by 4C to 6C?? If so, how did ocean currents do it?
