I only have a 2 year associates degree in wind and solar power generation as of 2016, but what do I know.
The guy that reviewed that paper in 2009, James Shirley works at nasa JPL and edited the encyclopedia of interplanetary sciences. Right now he appears to be studying the effects of solar minimum on mars climate. Probably because of the political back lash attached to suggestion that man made global warming may not be the driving force behind climate change on earth.
You might say he sees the big picture like no one else.

Does he work at the NASA Goddard Space Institute? If not,his specific expertise might not be germane when discussing the earth's climatology.
Interplanetary science is not planetary science.
