Scientific paper

We have re-examined the dust record from the GISP2 ice core retrieved from central Greenland and found that the background dust concentration is modulated with a period of 11 years all the way back to ice from at least 100,000 yrs BP. The only known, relevant, naturally occurring phenomenon with such a period is the well-known solar cycle. We believe that the background modulation we observe is related to the solar cycle and discuss this hypothesis.
