UNITE US Geophysical Institute UAF The Reason or Seasons. THE REASON FOR SEASONS. Earth’s four seasons (the amount of daylight and the temperature) are caused by its orientation to the sun. The . orientation is related to its orbit around the sun, its rotation on its axis, and the degree its axis is tilted.

The Earth's Orbit and the Reasons for Seasons Many of our most interesting astronomical and meteorological phenomena derive from the particular nature of the Earth's orbit. Thus, understanding the size, shape and orientation of our orbit in space will help us understand these phenomena. The earth revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit ...

“The Reasons for the Seasons” The Earth takes 365 and 1/4 days to complete one revolution around the sun and this amount of time is called a “year.” Every four years, 1/4 of a day will add up to 24-hour day, and we add an extra day (February 29th) to the calendar. This is why we have a “leap year” with one extra day every four years.

Reason for the Seasons Facts Tilt and Direct/Indirect Heat Energy The Earth is tilted.Sometimes the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun. Sometimes it’s tilted away from the Sun. Look at this diagram. The tilt of the Earth affects the amount of heat energy we receive from the Sun. Look at the Earth when it is winter.

Earth’s tilted axis and orbit cause seasons. Just as gravity causes objects near Earth to be pulled toward Earth’s center, it also causes Earth and other objects near the Sun to be pulled toward the Sun’s center. Fortunately, Earth does not move straight into the Sun. Earth moves sideways, at nearly a right angle to the Sun’s direction.

While the earth’s orbit is slightly elliptical, it’s very close to circular, and the variation in distance between the earth and sun is not enough to account for our seasons. The seasons are caused by the tilt of the earth. The earth holds its rotation axis (tilt) fixed in space …

THE SEASONS Date Although the distance between the Earth and the sun varies on an annual cycle, this change is too small to cause seasons. Our seasons are caused by the 23½° tilt of Earth’s axis. This tilt causes the sun’s path through the sky to change throughout the …

Practice Quiz: Earth, Sun, and Seasons I. Seasons Diagram. Label the proper solstices and equinoxes for the northern hemisphere on the diagram below. You should write 2 words into each label. “Northern” is already given in each. For example, one of them would be Northern Winter Solstice. They will also be demonstrated with globes.

Actually it is the opposite: Earth is closer to the Sun during the north hemisphere winter and farter during the north hemisphere summer (see another slide later) • Seasons are opposite in the N and S hemispheres, so distance cannot be the reason. • The real reason for seasons involves Earth’s axis tilt.

A Diagram of the Earth-Sun Relationship Notice that the Earth’s tilt is always directed towards one place in space (in this model, it is towards the left. But notice all you need to do is move your perspective to underneath or some other side, and saying the pole tilts towards “the left” becomes meaningless.
