however, more direct comparisons between solar activity and global temperature finds that  as the sun grew hotter or cooler, earth's climate followed it with a 10 year lag - presumably due to the dampening effect of the ocean.

this heat uptake provides a time-lag for climate change but it also results in a thermal expansion of the oceans which contribute to sea-level rise.
