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.
Would winds have favored European explores seeking to travel east around the tip of Africa?
No it wouldn't have helped because of the Coriolis Effect. Remember that winds in the northern hemisphere turn to the right and the winds in the Southern Hemisphere turn to the left.
Is it colder in the winter in the Northern Hemisphere because Earth is farther from the sun then?
Actually, the earth passes its perihelion, the point in its orbit at which it is closest to the sun, in early January. Although the total amount of the sun's energy that is reaching the earth decreases as the earth's distance from the sun increases, that difference is insignificant compared to the effect of the angle at which the sun's rays are contacting the various parts of the earth.
What is the season when the earth is farthest from the sun in the southern hemisphere?
That is true. The orbit of the Earth around the sun is ellipitical, and the Earth is farthest from the sun on July 4th. This is slightly ironic, since that is when the northern hemisphere has the warmest weather. But the axial tilt has a greater effect than the variation in distance from the sun (which is only a minor variation).
What is the best slogan about greenhouse effect?
an affect to die for
Will greenhouse gas effect global warming?
yes, increases in greenhouse gasses are the dominant cause of global warming.
Does deforestoration increase the greenhouse effect?
Yes, deforestation removes trees that act as a carbon sink, removing and storing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This increases the greenhouse effect.
What direction is the Coriolis effect in the northern and southern hemisphere?
In the Northern hemisphere, the direction is clockwise... In the Southern, it turns anti-clockwise.
Who do cyclones effect?
cyclones effect mostly people in the southern hemisphere because people in the northern hemisphere call them hurricanes
In the northern hemisphere planetary winds deflect to the what?
the corriolus effect
In the northern hemisphere planetary winds deflect to the?
the corriolus effect
What condition of the Earth increases because of the greenhouse effect?
We primarily see the Warming of our Globe.
What effect causes winds to turn westward in the lower northern hemisphere?
The Coriolis effect.
What does the coriolis effect do to winds in the northern hemisphere?
In the Northern Hemisphere winds spiral to the right; while in the southern hemisphere winds spiral to the left.
Are longer days a result of the greenhouse effect?
No, the greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm, but it has no effect on the length of days. Days are longer in summer because your hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and so gets more hours of daylight.
This effect causes winds to turn westward in the lower northern hemisphere?
Coriolis or Coriolis effect
What causes planetary winds to deflect in the Northern Hemisphere?
the corriolus effect
