the tilt of the earth affects the earth's climate by when the north is tilted closer to the sun it is warmer and sunny for six months strait. but when the north is tilted away it is colder and dark for six months strait

∙ 9y agoThe tilt of the earth's axis affects climate in the temperate and polar regions by shifting the earth closer or farther away from the sun. The tilt is what causes seasons. When the north pole tilts toward the sun, it is summer in the northern hemisphere and when the south pole tilts toward the sun, it is summer in the southern hemisphere.

∙ 13y agoThe earth's tilt affects the climate by causing seasons. As it orbits the sun, the northern hemisphere may be closer to the sun, and as a result, will be hotter, then on the other side of the orbit, (1/2 a year later), the Northern Hemisphere may be further away, or tilted away from the sun, resulting in winter.
The sun gives heat, the tilt makes sure that a hemisphere,when tilted, will get more heat than the other and vice versa

∙ 10y agoThe tilt of the earth stays the same as it revolves around the sun. Since it stays the same, one of the earth's poles will be pointed more to the sun. There is more sunlight in one half of the earth then there is the other half, which causes the weather to be different. If it is summer in the northern hemisphere, that means the north pole is tilted towards the sun, and the south is colder.
This is related to the seasons, but not really to the weather.

∙ 6y agoThe "axial tilt", the angle between the ecliptic (the orbital plane of the Earth around the Sun) and the Earth's equator is about 23.5 degrees. This causes, among other things, our seasons; winter to spring to summer to autumn. Without our seasons, the climate would never change from month to month.

What does Earth's tilted axis mainly affect?
Seasons And Climate
What is the deciduous forest climate?
The Climate in the Deciduous Forest is greatly affected by the tilt of the earth's axis. As our planet revolves around the sun, its axis stays tilted, causing the four seasons of the deciduous forest. During the spring and summer months, the deciduous forest ranges in temperatures from cool to warm. In the fall and winter, the forests will get very cold. These changes of the season not only affect the temperature in the forest but also alter the form of precipitation it receives. Actually the tilt of the Earth affects ALL seasonal climate changes on the Earth, not just the forests.
How does the earth's position in relationship to the sun affect the weather and climate?
The earth's orbit around the sun is almost circular. The slight deviation from circularity plays no practical part in the climate. Weather and climate are to do with the tilt of the earth's axis, and it's orientation to the plane of the orbit - if the axis was perpendicular to the plane of the orbit there would be no seasons cycle. If the orbit were farther from the sun, it would be colder (eg Mars), or closer, it would be hotter (eg Venus), although in both those examples there are other factors contributing (eg atmospheric density).
What was the degree of tilt to the earth in Japanese earthquake?
0.00. Earthquakes do not significantly affect the tilt of the Earth's axis.
What are the seasons of the earth caused by?
the earth spins on its axis changing the distances from the sun that's why our temperature and seasons change.

What causes the seasons of the world?
The tilt of the earth's axis is responsible for seasonal variations in temperature and climate.
How does the tilt of earth's axis affect the number of daylight hours and temperature?
if the axis is over 90 degrees to the norh as it is in the summer
How does the longitude and latitude affect the Columbia river affect its climate?
it affect the river because of the transition of the earth's rotational axis and the planets also have a big affect to the rivers future.

Seasons And Climate
How the earth movements affect climate?
earths axis is little tilted which makes its rotation different at different points of time. this change in rotation and the significant difference of distant between the earth and the sun affects the climate
What is responsible for the climate zones on the earth?
Unequal heating of the earth's surface. The earth's axis.
Why does the distance from the equator usually affect the climate of a place?
the farther a place is from the equator, the less directly the sun hits it, because the earth's axis is tilted. this varying amount of sunlight affects the climate.

How does your location on the surface of the Earth affect the surface temperature?
when the axis tilts or the earth it gets a bit closer to the sun so on one side its warmer than the other

Which two factors determine the climate in a particular region?
Well one is the ocean. Two is the Alpine Mountain system.
