Talk:Active region

Missing information
While the Solar cycle article covers many aspects, it seems to me (not an astronomer or scientist) this article needs expansion to include:


 * The science behind measurement to determine what is an actual active region.
 * Durations and sizes of active regions, perhaps a table.
 * Largest and smallest active areas. (recent time, historical)
 * List of shortest and longest activity times. (recent time, historical)

Each of these could be written as seperate article sections. Above list is in no particluar order so each of the topics can be added in any sequence.

Lastly, because of the small amount of content, at first I was planning to assess as Class Stub, but after further thought, Class Start, with "Missing information" tag. JoeNMLC (talk) 02:55, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the assessment, I hope to add a lot more later when I am less busy. Here are some more topics:
 * Classification and NOAA numbering
 * Formation and evolution
 * Polarity inversion line (PIL)
 * Helicity
 * Net (unneutralized) electric currents
 * Connection to their associated phenomena (e.g., sunspots and solar flares}
 * Seismology
 * I have also given some sources that may be helpful. CoronalMassAffection (talk) 00:32, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
