Opposed in phase are curves 2, 5, 7, and 10, but they arenot quite so similar each to each. From this we see that during about70 years out of no, the 21-month periodicity, whether we regard itas true or spurious, would have produced nearly identical effects uponthe temperature of Berlin. The general mean effect over 70 years, as NO. 10 SOLAR RADIATION AND WEATHER STUDIESâABBOT 39. Fig. 17.âDetails of the 11- and 21-month periodicities in Berlin tempera-tures.
