The irradiance of the sun is primarily dependent on the wavelength of the radiant energy it emits. Different wavelengths correspond to different energies, and the distribution of emitted energy across these wavelengths defines the solar spectrum. While sunspots can influence the overall brightness of the sun, the fundamental relationship is rooted in the characteristics of the emitted radiation across various wavelengths.
