Introduction Into Meteorology 9/22/2011

Student Learning Objectives 1). Students will be able to describe what happens during a solstice and equinox. 2). Students will know how the Earth’s tilt causes during solstices and equinoxes causes changes in seasons. 3). Students will understand the difference between direct and indirect sunlight. Student Learning Objectives

What does the Earth’s orbit around the Sun really look like? Actual Orbit is Almost Perfectly Circular What does the Earth’s orbit around the Sun really look like?

What Causes Seasons? Earth’s Tilt On Its Axis 23.5 Degree If the Earth’s orbit around the Sun is the same, then how do we get seasons?

Solstice: “Sun Stands Still” Summer Solstice Winter Solstice June 21st When the Northern hemisphere of Earth is tilted 23.5 degrees toward the Sun longest day and shortest night of the year December 22nd When the Northern hemisphere of Earth is tilted 23.5 degrees away from the Sun shortest day and longest night of the year Solstice: “Sun Stands Still”

Equinox: “Equal Night” Autumnal/Fall Equinox Vernal/Spring Equinox When Earth is not tilted away from or toward the Sun. September 22nd Equal Day and Night When Earth is not tilted away from or toward the Sun. March 21st Equal Day and Night Equinox: “Equal Night”

How Does The Earth Having A Tilt Effect Seasons? Direct Light Indirect Light 90 Degree Angle More Concentrated Passes Through Less Atmosphere Over 90 Degree Angle Less Concentrated: Spread over greater distance Passes Through Much more Atmosphere How Does The Earth Having A Tilt Effect Seasons?
