ABSTRACT (Lean 2000): 
Because of the dependence of the Sun's irradiance on solar activity, 
reductions from contemporary levels are expected during the 
seventeenth century Maunder Minimum.  New reconstructions of spectral 
irradiance are developed since 1600 with absolute scales traceable to 
spacebased observations. The long-term variations track the envelope 
of group sunspot numbers and have amplitudes consistent with the range 
of Ca II brightness in Sun-like stars.  Estimated increases since 1675 
are 0.7%, 0.2% and 0.07% in broad ultraviolet, visible/near infrared 
and infrared spectral bands, with a total irradiance increase of 0.2%.

DESCRIPTION: 
Updated solar irradiance reconstruction. (See also Lean et al., 1995).
Included are time series of annual mean irradiance from 1610 to 2000 
of just the 11 year solar irradiance cycle, plus the 11 year 
cycle with a background component.  See Lean (2000) for discussion of 
the amplitude of the background component.
