What will the climate of earth be if the axial tilt of earth were 0 23.5 30 35 45 60 and 90 degrees?

What will the climate of the equatorial region, polar regions and other parts of earth become?
What will the planetary wind system and atmospheric circulation become?
Will this have any effect to the life of earth?

Answer:

Answer by Emily C
You will have far more extreme seasons as the angle of the tilt gets greater, much hotter summers and much colder winters

Question: The regions of the Earth according to climate?

It affects where people and animals can life, and where they can’t live. It also affects how they adapt to the climate, and what plants can grow there.

Question: how does the sun affect the earth and its climate?

Answer:

Answer by HD
you are joking i hope. you expect someone to do your homework for you. especially when it would take a book to
explain how the sun effects our climate.

Question: How would the climate in Houston,Texas if the earth was tilted at 10 degrees instead of 23.5?
I have a science project due tomorrow and i need to know how the climate in houston would change if the earth’s axis was tilted at 10 degrees instead of 23.5 degrees.

Any info will help plz

Answer:

Answer by uunknown11@rocketmail.com
it would be colder in texas because if it is tiled at 10 means texas move to top of world like pole.
it all depends on day and night.

Global Warming is dangerous, and alot can happen, such as the ice melting wich can cause floods or dangerous winds all kinds of stuff, pollution in air will be bad for our lungs, well die =(
theres more stuff about it. Hope it gave u a idea

Question: What is the general climate of planet Earth?
Describe the general climate, storms, badweather and why that climate and weather is like that.

Answer:

Answer by lithiumdeuteride
Earth’s climate is dominated by its shape (approximately a sphere), its orbit around the Sun, its albedo, and its rotation.

Since it’s a rotating sphere with an axis inclined by about 23 degrees relative to its orbital path, it experiences a cycle of seasons with each orbit of the Sun.

The rotation allows relatively even heating by the Sun (alternating between day and night), permitting the existence of liquid water year-round. It also causes Coriolis forces to act on the wind, which dominate global weather patterns.

The Earth’s albedo (the fraction of the Sun’s light reflected back into space) controls its mean temperature. Increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere traps infrared radiation, raising the temperature. Increased levels of soot high in the atmosphere stop sunlight from hitting the ground, lowering the temperature.

Question: What would happen to the climate if Earth took in more energy than it released?
a. the climate would get cooler.

b. the climate would get warmer.

c. the climate would not change.

d. the climate would get cooler,then warmer.

thanks!

Answer:

Answer by ERB
Heat is energy, so I would say that at first Earth would get warmer;however, Earth does have natural feedback systems and the end result would most likely be a cooler atmosphere.

Too much solar radiation, causes atmosphere to heat up, causes water to evaporate more, causes greater cloud formation, causes less incomming solar radiation, causes a cooler atmosphere.

Question: In terms of climate and vegetation, list at least three ways Earth was different during the time of the dinos?
In terms of climate and vegetation, list at least three ways Earth was different during the time of the dinosaurs, compared to the present

Answer:

Answer by David W
1. Globally much warmer.
2. Flowering plants make their first appearance and flourish.
3. Ocean currents are dramatically different due to drastically different continent arrangement. Ocean currents contribute to climate.
