What else can I help you with?
How come the closer you get to the equator the less you see northern lights?
You don't often see auroras near the equator because the lights occur above the magnetic poles, so the Northern Lights are more often seen from northern latitudes in Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Northern Europe and Russia, and Alaska in the US. If the aurora is very spectacular it can be seen closer to the equator, but hugely spectacular auroras don't occur very often.
Why are auroras more commonly seen in places such as Alaska and Australia than in places such as Florida and Mexico?
They are more commonly seen closer to the poles than the equator because magnetism near the poles.
Do solar flares from the sun cause auroras near earths poles?
Magnetic storms unleashed by solar flares can cause auroras, but all solar flares don't cause auroras.
What can cause auroras near earth poles?
Auroras near Earth's poles are caused by solar wind particles interacting with the Earth's magnetic field. When these charged particles from the sun collide with atoms and molecules in the Earth's atmosphere, they create light emissions, producing the colorful auroras. The Earth's magnetic field funnels these particles towards the poles, resulting in the concentration of auroras in these regions.
Is Panama near the equator?
Yes Panama is near the equator.
What is the closest distance that an aurora has been to the equator?
I'm not sure if it is the closest aurota o equator but in 1859, auroras were spotted in Hawaii and Panama. They were caused by geomagnetic storms.
Is there a wet climate near the equator?
your a wet climate near the equator
Why continents far from equator colder than countries near the equator?
s far at the equator colder than contries near the equator
Why are all states along the equator warm?
They are warm because the states are near to the equator and the equator is near to the sun.
Do Auroras only show in the north?
No, near the south pole there are lights as well.
Which atmosphere do auroras occur in?
Ionosphere of Near northern hemisphere polar regions
In noon near the equator the Sun is?
In noon near the equator, the sun is high in the sky.
