Sun Spot Number Compared with Solar UV from SUSIM (1991-1997)

Visualizations by Horace Mitchell Released on April 9, 1999
An animated graph showing the eleven-year sun spot cycle, as shown by measurements of sun spot number. Following this graph, an animation compares sun spot number measurements for the 1990s with direct measurements of the change in solar ultraviolet irradiance from SUSIM.
