Is it true that when earth is closest to the sun is the northern hemisphere in winter?
When Earth is closest to the sun the Southern Hemisphere receives more of the sun's rays, making it hotter, or summer there, and winteri nthe north.
If its winter in North America where is it summer?
They are in different Hemispheres (Halves of the Earth) and each hemisphere points to the Sun each year. According to our seasons, Northern has summer and spring and Southern has winter and autum (fall).
How earth tilts and orbit causes season and how it effects day length?
Earth's tilt at the 23.5 causes unequal temperatures depending on were the earth is in its orbit around the sun. Because of the tilt when it's winter for the northern hemisphere, it is summer down in the southern hemisphere. When it is spring for the north, it is fall in the south and so on. Earth's tilt does not rotate as the earth does. So when the Solstices happen (depending on where you live, northern or southern) creates the longest day and longest nights or it will create the shortest day and the longest night. The equinox's that happen in spring and fall are the only days that both day and night are the same(ish).
When Earth is closest to the sun the northern hemisphere is in winter Given the effects of precession will this still be the case in 13000 years?
No; in 13,000 years, the precession of Earth will have changed the axis half a cycle (the full cycle is about 26,000 years), so that the position of the axis will be the opposite of what it is now.No; in 13,000 years, the precession of Earth will have changed the axis half a cycle (the full cycle is about 26,000 years), so that the position of the axis will be the opposite of what it is now.No; in 13,000 years, the precession of Earth will have changed the axis half a cycle (the full cycle is about 26,000 years), so that the position of the axis will be the opposite of what it is now.No; in 13,000 years, the precession of Earth will have changed the axis half a cycle (the full cycle is about 26,000 years), so that the position of the axis will be the opposite of what it is now.

Why is it summer in northern hemisphere and winter in southern hemisphere?
It is like this because the Earths axis is tilted which effects the seasons in the hemispheres.
Why when there was an ice age why was the northern half of the planet effected?
Both halves were effected, but most land masses are in the northern hemisphere so the effects were greater there.
Climate in January?
The climate in January in the northern hemisphere is winter but the effects of winter are not seen in the northern hesisphere until you travel past the tropic of cancer or 66 1/2degrees north. Cool.
Which term refers to a natural light show caused by the effects of solar winds in the earth's atmosphere?
The Aurora. In the northern hemisphere it is named 'The Aurora Borealis' ( Latin for Northern Lights) In the southern hemisphere it is named ' Tha Aurora Australis'. ( Latin for Southern Lights).
What are the effects of slight tilt of earth's axis in the north pole?
If the north axis tilts towards the sun, the northern hemisphere is in summer and the southern hemisphere is in winter. The reverse is true when the north axis points away from the sun.
What is the effects of rotating of the earth tilt of the earth is away from the sun?
The tilting of the Earth creates the seasons that each hemisphere gains in turn. For instance, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, it is Winter in the North and Summer in the South - and visa-versa.
The Earths orbit is closest to the sun in January so why is it cold in the northern hemisphere during January?
The tilt of the earth's axis, away from the perpendicular to its orbital plane, has a much greater influence on the climate in any one place than the earth's distance from the sun has. As you correctly point out, the earth's orbital distance from the sun is completely overshadowed by other effects.
What happened in environmental science in the 1600's?
The eruption of Huaynaputina in South America in 1600 had effects on climate around the northern hemisphere (Southern hemispheric records are less complete). 1601 was the coldest year in six centuries, which led to a famine in Russia.
What effects did the Columbmian Exchange have on the western hemisphere?

If a cyclone or hurricane begins in the southern hemisphere and moves to the northern hemisphere does the Coriolis Effect cause the cyclone to switch the direction that it is spinning?
The Coriolis effect actually stops any hurricane or cyclone from crossing the equator. It's like a "Coriolis barrier", if you will. Hurricanes and typhoons are essentially "heat transfer" effects and almost continuously move AWAY from the equator, to the north or south.
Why is global warming happening faster in the northern hemisphere?
This is incorrect. Global warming is happening all around the world. The effects are more noticeable in warmer countries like Africa and Australia, as well as, surprisingly, the Arctic.
