Sunspots

Scientific paper

The heliographic latitude and longitude of 1338 penumbral sunspots observed by the author during cycle 22 were plotted on a Mercator-style map of the solar surface in order to study their distribution. Scarcity of spots along the equator and in high latitudes was evident, as were dense clumps and spot-free areas elsewhere. Analysis suggests that the sunspot distribution may not be completely random, but may be somewhat related to photosphere dynamics and interior convective processes.
