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.
When wil lthe next sunspot minimum and sunspot maximum occur after the maximum in 2001and the minimum in 2007?
The last sunspot cycle may have ended in December 2008 (Cycle 23). However, due to lack of sunspot activity, scientist are unsure whether cycle 23 has ended yet, or whether cycle 24 is just starting. A rough guess would place the timing around December 2009 but as with everything, nothing is certain, certainly not the sunspot cycle. (The 11 year cycle is a mean value and cannot be taken as precise). Given the approximate 11-year cycle, and assuming that cycle 24 started in January 2009, then the PEAK of sunspot activity should occur about 5 1/2 years from then, around summer 2014.

What is the character of the sunspot cycle?
You shall have to be more specific if you'd like me to answer.
Are sunspots most common during a sunspot minimum?
Sunspots are most common during a sunspot (solar magnetic) maximum, this occurs periodically, on an 11 year cycle.
What is the name of the duration relating to the rise and fall of the number of sunspots on the Sun?
It is often referred t as The Sunspot Cycle - period of about 11 years.
How many years is the sunspot cycle?
The sunspot cycle is about 11 years in length.
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.
What occurs in a eleven year cycle?
The cycle of sunspot activity.
What occurs in a eleven-year cycle in space?
The cycle of sunspot activity.
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.
How long is the sunspot cycle?
11 years in average.
What is the average sunspot cycle in years?
11 years
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."
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.
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 does the sunspot cycle seem to influence life on earth?
Hh
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.)
