the sun's magnetic field is responsible for sun spots and "space weather". the sun is a ball of plasma, a gas comprised of ions and electrons rather than neutral atoms. because ions and electrons have charge, they attach themselves to magnetic field lines. the sun rotates, so the material in the sun is in motion, however the equator and poles rotate at different speeds. this causes the magnetic field (which is locked into the material) to twist and contort, occasionally snapping and rebounding manifesting as solar flares, sunspots, and various other phenomena.

What kind of storms happen in the desert?
Yes, of course. Deserts have wind and dust storms and most deserts have a rainy season.
What causes unsettled weather and storms to brew?
Storms are caused by the collision of air masses that have different temperatures and humidities.

What is the magnetic disturbance on the sun called?
These magnetic disturbances are known as magnetic storms.
What are sudden disturbances in earth's magnetic field called?
Sudden disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field are called magnetic storms. These storms are typically caused by solar wind interacting with Earth's magnetosphere, resulting in fluctuations and disturbances in the magnetic field. Magnetic storms can affect a variety of technologies such as power grids, satellites, and communication systems.
What is the magnetic disturbance on the sun's surface called?
These magnetic disturbances are known as magnetic storms.
Magnetic storms are due to?
the rotation of the earth
What are sunpots?
There are nothing known as sunpots. But there are sunspot.It was discovered by galileo.He noticed that there are few areas on the sun where there is less helium which causes less fire that is why sunspots are dark in colour.
What evidence do you see in the sky when the solar magnetic storms break through your magnetic shield?
i need the answer too
What has the author Walter D Gonzalez written?
Walter D. Gonzalez has written: 'Criteria of interplanetary parameters causing intense magnetic storms (Dst < -100 nT)' -- subject(s): Geomagnetism, Magnetic storms, Magnetic effects, Interplanetary magnetic fields, Shock waves
What kind of energy could cause a sunspot?
Magnetism. They are magnetic storms.
What country are violent mountain storms common?
Violent mountain storms are veary common in Bhutan
How do magnetic storms affect life on earth?
Magnetic storms can disrupt communication systems, navigation equipment, and power grids on Earth, leading to potential outages and disruptions. They can also interfere with satellites and cause problems for astronauts in space. Additionally, magnetic storms can impact animal navigation and behavior, potentially affecting migratory patterns and communication signals.
What are the small dark areas on the suns suface?
Sun spots (magnetic storms).
How does a change over time?
Caused]by Magnetic "storms " in the surface and near surface
