  In this paper, starting from the updated time series of global temperature
anomalies, Ta, we show how the solar component affects the observed behavior
using, as an indicator of solar activity, the Solar Sunspot Number SSN. The
results that are found clearly show that the solar component has an important
role and affects significantly the current observed stationary behavior of
global temperature anomalies. The solar activity behavior and its future role
will therefore be decisive in determining whether or not the restart of the
increase of temperature anomalies observed since 1975 will occur.
