Scientific paper

Hoyt and Eddy (1983) have modeled solar irradiance by accounting for active regions. It is presently noted, however, in contradiction to this model, that in active region modeling of solar irradiance care should be taken to not merely employ average contrasts of faculae. This caveat is especially applicable if the model proceeds to ignore the active region facular areas when their contrasts are low, since this doubly devalues the faculae contribution relative to that of sunspots.
