How is earth tilted on its axis during the seasons? 16717721 https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944019398 The earth's tilted axis is what makes the season happen. Different parts of earth receive the sun's most direct rays.  The earth's axis is always pointed in the same direction, that's why different parts of earth get direct sunlight throughout the year. An example would be when the North Pole tilts toward the sun, in the Northern Hemisphere is summer. And the South Hemisphere is the opposite.]]> 2020-11-20 01:06:03 UTC https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944019398 16717721 https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944063604 2020-11-20 01:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944063604 16717721 https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944070386 Definition of "angle of isolation" is the angle where the sunlight hits the earth's surface. "Insolation" is the solar radiation we receive from the sun.]]> 2020-11-20 01:32:06 UTC https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944070386 What is the relationship between Earth’s axial tilt and the angle of insolation received at any point in the year to cause seasons? 16717721 https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944071428 Angle of isolation increases and decreases as the year goes, during summer solstice is when we received the greatest. An example would be we in June we received 15 hours of daylight and in December only 9 hours of daylight.]]> 2020-11-20 01:32:42 UTC https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944071428 This shows Earth’s axial tilt and the angle of insolation relationship during northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere. 16717721 https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944084064 2020-11-20 01:39:27 UTC https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944084064 16717721 https://padlet.com/16717721/3nb9tmik84t9nrfn/wish/944097434 Axial tilt is responsible for angle of incoming solar radiation & duration of sunlight.
