The sunspot series are investigated in detail by use of a wavelet transform. By simple arguments, we present a reduced sunspot time-series, which can be argued to be approximately proportional to the magnetic flux density at the coronal surface. This reduced sunspot index correctly reproduces the (average) 22 year solar cycle. Closer scrutiny of the sunspot variation shows that the frequency of the solar cycle and the energy in the magnetic field vary consistently with conservation of action, i.e., energy divided by frequency. The analysis is based on the available data beginning with the year 1700, and analyzed by a wavelet transform. The present results relate to observations reported previously in the literature.
