What causes the difference between the northern and southern hemispheres?

The difference betweeen the northern and southern hemispheres is that the both hemispheres have opposite seasons. For example: In January the northern hemisphere is winter is is tilted away from the sun and it gets alot of less direct sunlight and in the southern hemisphere it's summer and it is tilted toward the sun.

Tornadoes form in the southern hemisphere for the same reason they form in the northern hemisphere. The mechanics are the same. See the related question for what causes tornadoes

Does the earth rotation causes season?

No. Rotation (spin) causes days and nights. It is the tilt of the Earth as it revolves around the sun that causes the seasons, by changing the angle and duration of sunlight reaching areas of each hemisphere. Summer in the northern hemisphere is winter in the southern, and vice versa. Between these two extremes are spring and fall. Areas closer to the equator experience much less seasonal variation in daylight.

Why do wind curve to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere?

The Coriolis Effect, a consequence of Earth's rotation, causes this.


How does the angle of radiation affect the temperature?

The seasonal tilting of the Earth away from the Sun, causes the sunlight to strike the Earth at an angle that means the distance travelled is longer and cooling is increased. This means that Winter occurs in the Northern Hemisphere, and Summer in the Southern Hemisphere, and visa versa when the Earth tilts towards the Sun.


What is a coriolis in a hurricane?

This is the effect of the spinning earth on the axis. It cause Tropical storms to rotate anti clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. It also causes the track of the Hurricane to bend to the right in the northern hemisphere and left in the southern hemisphere.
