<< Did you read it>>

Thank you for linking that NASA report WR. I have read it.

Nice graphics and explanations of many aspects of space weather.

Very little substance that matters though.

This is an idea how much we don't know.

Why is the Corona So Much Hotter Than the Surface of the Sun?


The corona is much hotter than the Sun's surface, about 1 million °C compared to 5,500 °C (9,940 °F). Researchers aren’t sure exactly why the corona is so hot. It’s possible that millions of nanoflares, which are tiny explosions happening at the solar surface, are creating the energy that heats up the corona. Another idea is that solar tornadoes, which are giant vertical spirals of plasma that interact with the Sun’s magnetic field, could also lead to high coronal temperatures. There is still much to be learned about the corona!

So we don't know lots and lots. There is guesswork going on. They simply don't know.

Therefore to state the suns (and the Earths) magnetic field don't effect climate is a long reach. A reach that is so long it is completely unsustainable as I see it.
