For any given place on earth, the amount of daily sunshine is due to the tilt of the earth's rotational axis with respect to the plane of its orbit and the fact that the direction in space in which the earth's axis points is almost constant as the earth revolves around the sun (one complete cycle of the direction or the earth's axial tilt with respect to the "fixed" stars takes about 25772 years).

The closer you get to the poles, the more variation there is in the amount of sunlight per day, and the closer you get to the equator, the less variation there is.

How you can calculate the length of stay in hotels?

To calculate the length of stay in hotels, subtract the check-in date from the check-out date. For example, if a guest checks in on January 1 and checks out on January 5, the length of stay is four nights. Alternatively, you can count the number of nights booked directly, as the length of stay typically corresponds to the number of nights a guest occupies a room.

Where on earth are the seasonal variations if temperature and day length greatest?

The seasonal variations in temperature and day length are greatest at higher latitudes, particularly near the poles. Areas within the Arctic and Antarctic Circles experience extreme changes, with polar days in summer when the sun doesn't set and polar nights in winter when the sun doesn't rise. Additionally, regions like Scandinavia and northern Canada experience significant temperature fluctuations throughout the year due to their distance from the equator.


What happens to the length of days and nights in winter?
