The Role of Sunspots and Solar Winds in Climate Change
... Sunspots are storms on the sun’s surface that are marked by intense magnetic activity and play host to solar flares and hot gassy ejections from the sun’s corona. Scientists believe that the number of spots on the sun cycles over time, reaching a peak—the socalled Solar Maximum—every 11 years or so ...
