The thermal equator (also known as "the heat equator") is a belt encircling the Earth, defined by the set of locations having the highest mean annual temperature at each longitude around the globe.
The shift in the heat equator between January and July is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun. In January, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun, causing the heat equator to shift south. In July, the tilt is towards the Southern Hemisphere, causing the heat equator to shift north.
Big wind storms, called hurricanes and typhoons, tend to happen near the equator, not necessarily at the equator exactly. Heat drives the weather. The more heat you have, the more violent the weather will become.
The lines are latitude,heat equator and pressure belts.
The equator is an imaginary line equidistant from the poles, and is the starting point or 0° in latitude.
The heat equator, or thermal equator, shifts annually due to the tilt of the Earth's axis and its orbit around the Sun. As the Earth orbits, different regions receive varying amounts of solar radiation throughout the year, causing the heat equator to move northward in the summer months and southward during winter. This seasonal shift influences global weather patterns and climate, as areas near the heat equator experience more intense heat and moisture. The movement is also affected by ocean currents and land-sea contrasts, further contributing to variations in temperature distribution.
The equator is the definition of "Zero" latitude.
The equator is the definition of zero latitude.
The equator is the definition of "Zero latitude".
Everything north of the equator.
It's actually parallel to the parallels, since the parallels are by definition parallel to the equator.
No the equator does not give off heat. The reason the equator is warmer than other places is because the equator gets the most direct sunlight from the sun.
The definition of Heat Energy is The energy created by conduction. : )
The Equator receives the most heat energy
the sun's solar radiation travels through space until it hits earth. because heat is just vibrating particles, it starts to heat the water at the equator.
Another definition for latitude is the distance north or south of the equator, measured in degrees.
