The authors' main claim We conclude that oscillatory phenomena observed in solar activity and in planet atmosphere variability could be due to the response of the various natural oscillatory modes to impulsive Sun acceleration associated with planetary motion.

This paper explores a possible linkage between solar motion about the solar system center of mass and the quasi-periodicity evident in the pressure and temperature of planet atmospheres. We establish that dominant mid frequency range periodicity in planet atmospheres corresponds closely to the harmonic series 39.5/n = TA/n years where n = 2, 3, 4, etc. We establish that the period TA = 39.5 years is the interval between acceleration impulses experienced by the Sun as it passes close to the solar system center of mass and that the time sequence of impulses generates the spectral harmonic series TA/n that is observed in the periodicity of climate indices like the North Atlantic Oscillation and the Quasi Biennial Oscillation. We develop a model of a simple harmonic oscillator responding to periodic acceleration impulses and show that the response duplicates several features of the Quasi Biennial Oscillation. We conclude that oscillatory phenomena observed in solar activity and in planet atmosphere variability could be due to the response of the various natural oscillatory modes to impulsive Sun acceleration associated with planetary motion.

This paper explores a possible linkage between solar motion about the solar system center of mass and the quasi-periodicity evident in the pressure and temperature of planet atmospheres. We establish that dominant mid frequency range periodicity in planet atmospheres corresponds closely to the harmonic series 39.5/n = TA/n years where n = 2, 3, 4, etc. We establish that the period TA = 39.5 years is the interval between acceleration impulses experienced by the Sun as it passes close to the solar system center of mass and that the time sequence of impulses generates the spectral harmonic series TA/n that is observed in the periodicity of climate indices like the North Atlantic Oscillation and the Quasi Biennial Oscillation. We develop a model of a simple harmonic oscillator responding to periodic acceleration impulses and show that the response duplicates several features of the Quasi Biennial Oscillation. We conclude that oscillatory phenomena observed in solar activity and in planet atmosphere variability could be due to the response of the various natural oscillatory modes to impulsive Sun acceleration associated with planetary motion.
