The period of time in which a long term reduction of temperature in the earth's surface occured?
Ice Age.
Can an earthquake be caused by temperature?
Not by temperature variations at Earth's surface, no. However, temperature variations in Earth's mantle play a role in plate tectonics, and so can affect earthquake activity.
What is the name for the periods of time where the Earth has been much colder?
The periods of time where the temperature of the Earth has been much colder then traditional times are referred to as ice ages. It is a long term reduction in the temperature of the Earth resulting in the expansion of the polar ice caps.
How does large permanent ice surfaces affect your earth climate?
it makes the temperature cooler
How does the angle of the sun hitting the earth affect the temperature of the earth?
Sunlight is at its strongest when it is at a perpendicular angle; at oblique angles it is weaker.
How would a drastic reduction in plant life on earth affect the atmosphere?
levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide would decrease and levels of carbon dioxide would increase.
How does location on earth affect temperature?
The equater.
The period of time in which a long term reduction of temperature in the earth's surface occured?
Ice Age.
How does greenhouseeffect affect the air?
Increasing the temperature of the earth atmosphere.
Does the distance from the sun affect the earth's temperature?
Because of the Earths atmosphere, the distance from the Sun, does not affect the temperature on the surface of the Earth. In the northern hemisphere, we are closer to the Sun in winter and the furthest away in summer.
How does each factor affect earth's temperature?
The earth's temperature is affected by wind and precipitation. These two factors help to cool down the temperature when its hot. Without them, the earth would begin to over heat.
Can an earthquake be caused by temperature?
Not by temperature variations at Earth's surface, no. However, temperature variations in Earth's mantle play a role in plate tectonics, and so can affect earthquake activity.
How did gravitational contraction affect earth?
Gravitational contraction raised the temperature of Earth early in it's formation.
What is the name for the periods of time where the Earth has been much colder?
The periods of time where the temperature of the Earth has been much colder then traditional times are referred to as ice ages. It is a long term reduction in the temperature of the Earth resulting in the expansion of the polar ice caps.
What is the winter solstice and how does it affect earth's temperature in the northern hemisphere?
It is when the day is the shortest in the year. It really shouldn't affect temperature(except it might be cold be cause it is winter!)
How does earth rotation and sun position affect heat and temperature on the earth?

How does large permanent ice surfaces affect your earth climate?
