Enhanced wavelet analysis of solar magnetic activity with comparison to global temperature and the Central England Temperature record

The continuous wavelet transform may be enhanced by deconvolution with the wavelet response function. After correcting for the cone of influence, the power spectral density of the solar magnetic record as given by the derectified yearly sunspot number is calculated, revealing a spectrum of odd harmonics of the fundamental Hale cycle, and the integrated instant power is compared to a reconstruction of global temperature in a normalized scatterplot displaying a positive correlation after the turn of the twentieth century. Comparison of the spectrum with that obtained from the Central England Temperature record suggests that some features are shared while others are not, and the scatterplot again indicates a possible correlation.
