Solar "Grand Minima" Threat Analysis
http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/SGMTA.pdf
A Grand Minima is a period lasting several decades when the sun is magnetically quiet producing very few sunspots. In the past these periods corresponded to Little Ice Ages. This paper by James A. Marusek1 provides an analysis of this threat.
