Earth's Climate Factors & Effects in 40 Characters
- 50. Ice and Snow
- 51. Tectonic Activity Earth has about 12 major tectonic plates that move at a rate of a few centimeters each year. As a result, the shapes of the oceans and continents are always changing .
- 52. Tectonic Activity The changing distribution of land and water affects patterns of air and water circulation and the transfer of thermal energy around the world.
- 53. In addition, volcanic eruptions , (which generally occur at the boundaries of tectonic plates), spew ash and other particles called “ aerosols ” into the atmosphere.
- 54. Aerosols reflect solar radiation and have a cooling effect on the global climate.
- 55. This effect may last from a few years to several decades , until the particles are removed from the atmosphere by precipitation and settling .

- the greater the tilt, the greater the temperature difference is between summer and winter
- this wobble affects the amount and intensity of solar energy that is received by the northern and southern hemispheres at different times of the year. This variation determines whether the two hemispheres have similar contrasts between seasons, or whether one hemisphere has greater temperature differences between seasons than the other hemisphere does.
