For some reason you are not getting it but then again it has to do with the academic slums you went to which makes it somewhat understandable. It is impossible to discuss climate for any planet without the rotational causes for the diurnal day/night cycle and separately the seasonal day/night cycle or the polar day/night cycle at the Earth's poles.

Look at the nice graph of temperature fluctuations -

When do you think the Sun is in view when looking at the graph ?, when do you think the other stars are in view when looking at the same graph ?. What do you think causes the Sun to come into view each morning and cause the temperature to rise and the stars come into view in the evening and temperatures fall ?.

A person would normally feel insulted that such basic questions with basic answers are asked but then again you are the people who imagine that 24 hour weekdays and rotations fall out of sync -

Life can't have any significance for you,at least in witnessing the motions behind creation and its spiritual/inspirational background but that is the price of your hapless clockwork solar system.
