What is the average sunspot cycle in years?
11 years
Which solar phenomenon appears in 10- to 12- year cycles?
The sunspot cycle is about 11 years long. This can vary somewhat; the current cycle has had an extended minimum with very few sunspots for about 3 years, and even now the sunspot numbers are very low for this point in the cycle.
What is is the sunspot cycle?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunspot_cycle The definition for sunspot cycle is "the recurring increase and decrease in the number of sunspots over a period averaging about eleven years."
How often does the sunspot cycle repeat itself?
every 11 years
What are sunspot maximums and sunspot minimums?
Sunspot maximum and sunspot minimum are the points in time (roughly 6 years apart) when the sun is producing the most, or the least sunspots. In the past this has been measured both by sunspot area and sunspot count and is directly tied to the solar magnetic cycle.
What is the average sunspot cycle in years?
11 years
The duration of the sunspot cycle is approximately?
Every 11 years. The entire solar magnetic cycle takes about 22 years; twice in this cycle there is a sunspot maximum.
How long is the sunspot cycle?
11 years in average.

How often is the sunspot cycle?
About 11 years on average - but there are large variations in the length of individual cycles. Once each sunspot cycle, the magnetic field on the Sun reverts - so the real (underlying) cycle is about 22 years. (It takes two sunspot cycles for the magnetic field to go back to the original position.)
What are sunspot maximums and sunspot minimums?
Sunspot maximum and sunspot minimum are the points in time (roughly 6 years apart) when the sun is producing the most, or the least sunspots. In the past this has been measured both by sunspot area and sunspot count and is directly tied to the solar magnetic cycle.
How long is the average sunspot cycle?
The average length of the sunspot cycle is 11 years. Some cycles are double peaked, which makes it difficult to determine when one ends and when another one begins.
Do sunspot maximums always occur every 11 years?
yes. Inside a greater cycle of 22 years.
Are you in the high middle or low part of the sunspot cycle?
The Sun is rising close to its high, or peak sunspot cycle.
How much time passes between two successive sunspot minima?
On average, each sunspot cycle takes about 11 years. Some are longer, and some shorter.
