Wolf chose to compute his sunspot number by adding 10 times the number of groups to the total count of individual spots, because neither quantity alone completely captured the level of activity. Each daily mean is computed as a weighted average of counts made by a network of cooperating observers in an effort to reduce the influence of personal judgment. Sunspots are optically dark regions in the solar atmosphere of relatively low temperature. They mark areas where the sun's magnetic field has intensified by 1 or 2 powers of 10. The frequency of occurrence of sunspots rises and falls with an 11-year periodicity. purpose: Solar Research - Sun's Magnetic Field status: (MD_ProgressCode) underDevelopment pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) individualName: Solar Data Manager organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 303.497.6133 or 303.497.6323 facsimile: (303) 497-6513 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC E/GC2 325 Broadway city: Boulder administrativeArea: CO postalCode: 80305 country: USA electronicMailAddress: solar.ngdc@noaa.gov hoursOfService: 7:30 - 4:30 Mountain contactInstructions: Contact Data Center role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) monthly descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Sun-earth Interactions > Solar Activity > Sunspots type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: NASA/Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Earth Science Keywords date: (CI_Date) date: 2007-04 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) revision edition: Version 6.0.0.0.0 editionDate: 2007-04 citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/GCDC/GCMD > Global Change Master Directory, Global Change Data Center, Earth Sciences Division, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA contactInfo: (CI_Contact) onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/Resources/valids/archives/keyword_list.html protocol: http applicationProfile: web browser name: GCMD Keywords, Version 6.0.0.0.0 description: Thesuarus for earth science keywords and associated directories hosted and maintained by NASA. function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information role: (CI_RoleCode) resourceProvider descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Solar Physics keyword: Relative Sunspot Count keyword: International Sunspot Number keyword: Sunspot type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Uncontrolled Keywords date: descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Photosphere type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: NASA/GCMD Location Keywords date: descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Sun type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Uncontrolled Location Keywords date: resourceConstraints: (MD_LegalConstraints) accessConstraints: (MD_RestrictionCode) otherRestrictions useConstraints: (MD_RestrictionCode) otherRestrictions otherConstraints: Access Constraints: No Constraints Use Constraints: None Distribution Liability: While every effort has been made to ensure that these data are accurate and reliable within the limits of the current state of the art, NOAA cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in the data. language: eng; USA topicCategory: (MD_TopicCategoryCode) geoscientificInformation extent: (EX_Extent) temporalElement: (EX_TemporalExtent) extent: TimePeriod: beginPosition: 1800-01-01 endPosition: supplementalInformation: Processing: Daily sunspot number computed by Zurich (Rz) from 1818 to 1980.
