Thereof, how are sunspots related to climate?

During this eleven-year cycle of sunspots, the sunspot number increases -solar maximum and decreases- solar minimum. In addition, the solar magnetic field, ultraviolet radiation, and other features that may affect climate are found to rise and fall along with the sunspot number.

Subsequently, question is, how do sunspots affect water? At the same time, the increased sunlight at solar maximum causes a slight warming of ocean surface waters across the subtropical Pacific, where Sun-blocking clouds are normally scarce. That small amount of extra heat leads to more evaporation, producing additional water vapor.

Besides, do sunspots increase temperature?

Sunspots are cooler than the rest of the Sun, but many scientists think that when there are a lot of sunspots, the Sun actually gets hotter. This affects the weather here on Earth, and also radio reception. Without sunspots the Earth would probably be cooler.

What causes sunspots on the sun?

Sunspots are caused by the Sun's magnetic field welling up to the photosphere, the Sun's visible "surface". The powerful magnetic fields around sunspots produce active regions on the Sun, which often lead to solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs).
