NEW 'SUN CLOCK' DISCLOSES THAT SOLAR TASK TURNS OFF AND ALSO ON WITH UNUSUAL PRECISION
Solar scientists have actually taken a mathematical method used by Earth researchers to assess cyclic phenomena, such as the ups and downs of ocean tides, and used it to the confounding irregularity of cycles on the Sun. The outcome is a stylish "Sun clock" that shows that solar task starts and stops on a far more specific routine than could be recognized when taking a look at monitorings of the Sun in the standard method-- plotted linearly with time.
