What region of the ocean get the greatest input of solar radiation when it's winter in the northern hemisphere?

During winter in the Northern Hemisphere, the region of the ocean that receives the greatest input of solar radiation is the Southern Hemisphere, particularly around the equator and in the tropical regions. This is because these areas are tilted towards the sun during the Northern Hemisphere's winter months. Consequently, the Southern Ocean and surrounding tropical waters experience heightened solar exposure, while the Northern Hemisphere regions receive less direct sunlight.

What effect does the hemisphere have on the seasons?

The hemisphere you are in (northern or southern) has an effect on when you experience the seasons. At points in the earth's orbit it is either the southern or northern hemisphere that is tilted further towards the sun. This makes that hemisphere warmer, experiencing summer while the other colder and experiences winter. Then six months later, things are reversed.


When its summer in the northern part of the world which season is in the southern part of the world?

When it's summer in the northern hemisphere, it is winter in the southern hemisphere. This is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis, which causes opposite seasons in the two hemispheres. As the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, it experiences warmer temperatures, while the southern hemisphere is tilted away, resulting in cooler temperatures.

Why does the southern hemisphere experience winter and summer solstice in different times than of the northern hemisphere?

As everyone knows the Earth tilts on it's axis at the angle of 66 and half degrees. On 21st December the Earth tilts on it's axis so that the sun would hit the southern hemisphere and then the southern hemisphere would have winter while the northern hemisphere would have winter. So when the sun's rays hit the northern hemisphere then the northern hemisphere would have summer while the southern hemisphere would have winter.


Why does your friend have to pack a winter coat when she is in the southern hemisphere and she wants to go to the northern hemisphere?

It is colder in the northern hemisphere and the seasons are opposite. So, while it is summertime in the southern hemisphere where your friend lives, it would be snowing in the northern hemisphere. Therefore, you'd need a jacket.


How do the seasons of Australia to the seasons of the countries in the Northern Hemisphere?

The seasons are reversed. When it is spring or summer in the northern hemisphere, it is the autumn (fall) or the winter in Australia. This is caused by the northern part of the world being tipped the opposite way (towards or away) from the sun to Australia. The seasons in Australia and other countries in the Southern Hemisphere are reversed from those in the Northern Hemisphere. When it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere, it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere, and so forth. For example, the Australian summer starts in December, while winter begins in July.
