New Doom Earth Tilting Out Of Control
An ideal that has become evident to me through understanding who gets the most sunlight

We now know that Earth orbits the sun elliptically and, at the same time, spins on an axis that is tilted relative to its plane of orbit. This means that different hemispheres are exposed to different amounts of sunlight throughout the year. Because the sun is our source of light, energy and heat, the changing intensity and concentration of its rays give rise to the seasons of winter, spring, summer and fall.

Solstices and equinoxes

The seasons are marked by solstices and equinoxes — astronomical terms that relate to Earth’s tilt.

The solstices mark the points at which the poles are tilted at their maximum toward or away from the sun. This is when the difference between the daylight hours and the nighttime hours is most acute. The solstices occur each year on June 20 or 21 and Dec. 21 or 22, and represent the official start of the summer and winter seasons.

The earthquake that struck Japan on Friday was so powerful that it actually moved the whole planet by 25cm, experts say.

According to Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology the 9.0 magnitude 'quake was so powerful it shifted the axis around which the Earth rotates.

And the U.S. Geological Survey reported that the main island of Japan has been shifted 2.4 metres by the force of the disaster.

The shift to the Earth's tilt will have profound, if subtle effects on the length of the day and the passage of the seasons.

Global warming could change Earth's tilt

[link to www.newscientist.com]

As I mentioned in another thread the the earth's tilt is changing. Now we find that the

Sun rises 2 days early in Greenland. It usually rises on January 13th but for some reason rose on 11 Jan this year.

I've noticed myself that the sun position in the sky has been changing for some time now and this is the first proof.

"The sun is not supposed to be here until January 13th, something isn't right" a 74 year old local reported to KBR radio.

(And no, it's not the result of 'global warming')

Re: New Doom Earth Tilting Out Of Control
What would happen to Earth's climate if the tilt of its axis became less than 23.5?

Well, the seasons would be different. As the tilt of the axis decreases, the changes in seasons would be less and less noticeable until there would be no change at all at a tilt of zero degrees. Animals and plants who depend on different climates and/or seasons for mating/hibernating reasons might also be doomed...

A more interesting question would be what would the climate be like when the tilt is at any given angle.

Zero degrees - no change

5 degrees - small change, midnight sun only very close to the poles

10 degrees up to about 25 degrees - similar to what we have today

25 to 35 degrees - Interesting. Let's see - more extreme summers and winters.

Longer summer days, shorter winter days in the higher latitudes. The Arctic and Antarctic circle would be as far as 55 degrees north/south, which would put half of Scotland, to say nothing of Scandinavia, a great deal of Russia, the Baltic Republics, Canada, and all of Alaska except the southern tip, in darkness in late December and 24-hr light in June. The opposite can be said about the southern tip of South America. New Zealand would have an extremely short day (how short?) in June, and likely have frigid weather in June, similar to today's Finland in December.

The Tropic of Cancer/Capricorn would be at 35 north/south, which would give places like Syndey, Aukland, Buenos Aires, Cape Town as well as Tokyo, Oklahoma City, Los Angeles, a sweltering summertime climate simliar to Havana, Cuba, Florida today. We could go on and on.

35 to 45 degrees - This is even more interesting. Imagine the poles being temperate and the equator being frigid. Do a calculation of the average annual solar energy that impinges upon a given surface at a given latitude assuming a tilt of 45 degrees. Then do the same calculation for each season of the year.

45 to 90 degrees - More interesting even yet. Imagine the sun never setting at the north pole, being directly above.

Over here in europe we are already experiencing hot weather, could be this has to do with it.
