Simple answer is the sun. At least our distance from the sun. We have winter because we are farthest from the sun during the winter season. Which obviously means we orbit closer in the summer.

What is the average of all weather conditions through all seasons over a period of time?

The average of all weather conditions through all seasons over a period of time is climate. Periodic climate changes are due to El Niño, La Niña, volcanic eruptions, or other changes in the Earth system.


Do mountains have an affect on weather?

As we know, low air pressure often causes it to rain. When moist winds blow over mountains, the air on the other side is thinned out - the pressure is lowered. This causes rain to fall.


What are the trends in data between seasons and climate?

The difference between weather and climate is the measurement of time. Weather is a short period of time and climate is how the atmosphere acts over long periods of time.


What are the names of saturns seasons?

Saturn does have seasons, each of them lasting over nine years. The thickness of Saturn's rings though hard to see at times show what season the ringed planet is in. It takes 29 years for Saturn to complete its journey around the Sun. As Saturn moves along its orbit, first one hemisphere, then the other is tilted towards the Sun. This change causes seasons on Saturn, just as the Earth's tilt causes seasons on our planet. This allows Saturn to experience the same four seasons.


How are the seasons weather and climate connected to each other?

Seasons, weather, and climate are interconnected aspects of the Earth's atmospheric system. Seasons are determined by the tilt of the Earth's axis and its orbit around the sun, leading to variations in sunlight and temperature throughout the year. Weather refers to short-term atmospheric conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and precipitation, while climate represents the long-term average of these weather patterns over extended periods. Together, these elements influence ecosystems, agriculture, and human activities, highlighting their interdependence.

What happens with the earth that causes seasons?

There isn't one, the seasons change bcos the earth is tilted over on it's axis by about 23 degrees from vertical and as it spins through space in orbit of the sun the tilt causes the sun's effect to move up and down the earth thereby changing the seasons, for reference look up tropic of cancer or tropic of capricorn.


What is the difference between seasons and climate?

Seasons refer to the four divisions of the year based on weather patterns and daylight hours (spring, summer, fall, winter), while climate describes the long-term average weather conditions in a region. Seasons are temporary and change regularly, while climate is the overall pattern over a longer period of time.

What causes Mars to have seasons?

Mars has seasons because its axis is tilted in a similar way to Earth's. This tilt causes varying amounts of sunlight to reach different parts of the planet over the course of its orbit around the Sun, creating seasonal changes in temperature and weather patterns.

What makes the season change from Summer to Autumn?

The movement of the earth around the sun as well as the tilt of the earth causes Autumn and the rest of the seasons. In Autumn (Fall, in the US) that part of the earth is beginning to move away from directly facing the sun.


Why does tempererature change during the seasons?

It depends on where you live. As sunlight decreases(2 different ways), and as it gets colder air masses change, get colder, interact differently etc, cooler air over warmer water etc, you get differing weather patterns and seasons change. I would have to go into the different weather pattersn for differen locations and this would fill books! Suffice it to say, precipitations increases or decreases, wind increases or decreases, and temperature increases or decreases. You would have to be more specific as you your general area and then describe how the weather changes for where you live.
