Sunspots are most frequent about 30 degrees north or south of the equator. They tend to appear there around the maximum of the 11 year sunspot cycle. Earlier in the cycle they areseen at higher latitudes and later they are at lower latitudes.

Sunspots are known to be magnetic phenomena because?
Sunspots are known to be magnetic phenomena because of the Zeeman effect. The Zeeman effect has been found in sunspots.
Describe three features found on or above the surface of the sun?
prominences,solar flares, sunspots
Are sunspots hotter or colder regions of the sun?
No, sunspots are cooler than the photosphere.
Do sunspots occur on the surface of the sun?
What is true about sunspots
What features can be found on the surface of the sun?
solar flares, sun spots, and prominences

What phenomenon are affected by an increase in sunspots?
There is a solar phenomenon believed to be affected by an increase in sunspots. Most solar flares are believed to be linked to an increase in sunspots.
Does just the sun have sunspots?
no, most do
Does mars have any sun spots?
No. Sunspots are only found on the Sun.
Where are sunspots formed?
Surprisingly, almost all sunspots are found in two bands on the Sun, just north and south of the equator. At the start of the cycle, the sunspots appear at latitudes of about 30 degrees, both north and south of the equator. Then, as the cycle continues, more appear at lower latitudes until, at the end of the cycle, most spots appear near the equator.

When was the most recent maximum sunspots activity?
2002
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 dark area on the sunspot?
It was Galileo who first studied the dark spots found in the Sun which are now referred to as sunspots. It is believed that the intense magnetic fields surrounding the sun cause the appearance of sunspots.
