changes in solar output
Reason: solar output varies on short timescales (for example the ~11-year sunspot cycle), whereas orbital shape and Earth's tilt change over tens to hundreds of thousands of years (Milankovitch cycles). Ocean currents can vary on shorter timescales too, but the clearest short-period driver listed is solar output.
