AbstractWe present a simple dynamic model of solar variability influence on climate, which is truncated from the stratospheric wave-zonal flow interaction dynamics over a β-plane. The model consists of three ordinary differential equations controlled by two parameters: the initial amplitude of planetary waves and the vertical gradient of the zonal wind. The changes associated with the solar UV variability, as well as with seasonal variations, are introduced as periodic modulations of the zonal wind gradient. Influence of the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation is included as a periodic change of the width of the latitudinal extent of the β-plane. The major climate response to these changes is seen through modulation of the number of cold and warm winters.
