Climate for astronomers

They say they will introduce a binding resolution in a number of weeks to limit the planet's temperature to a rise of 2 degrees and thereby close out what is probably the darkest period in human endeavor where cause and effect between astronomy and terrestrial sciences merge.

The reasonable person, given some time to consider the matter, would have no problem whatsoever adopting a new perspective where zero inclination would result in benign conditions throughout an annual circuit much like what exists at the Earth's Equator where there is no asymmetry between the daylight/darkness cycles although there is the global feature where variations in the natural noon cycle occur there as elsewhere.

Most people get stuck on the point of the length of the day where they think of the length of daylight rather than the natural noon cycle which only refers to the total length of time it takes the Sun to cross the observer's meridian and why it varies at different points in the Earth's speed and orbital position in space.

The thin end of the perspective wedge is zero inclination as it refers to an Equatorial climate for a planet while the maximum inclination is 90 degrees designating a polar climate. All planet are within this spectrum so, notwithstanding the contemporary attempt to made weather look like climate, each planet's inclination acts like a dial towards either end of the spectrum..

Before they continue to wreck havoc with climate research, they should try to model the change in the surface conditions across latitudes using varying degrees of inclination insofar as a greater inclination towards the polar end of the spectrum means a greater Arctic/Antarctic circles with a great yo-yo effect on temperatures throughout an annual cycle.


Humanity shouldn't be facing an ideological horror of human control over the planet's temperature because the speculative empiricists have lost the run of themselves.

The Arctic circle is the defining maximum circumference which is reached at the December Solstice before it starts to contract as the Earth moves through space and turns the entire planet and the North pole closer to the circle of illumination after expanding for the previous 3 months.

If the Earth's inclination were to increase to 30° from its present 23 1/2° then so would the Arctic circumference increase with a greater fluctuation in surface conditions across the same 3 months. In other words the planet would acquire a greater polar input across latitudes and likewise a decrease in inclination would produce a more Equatorial climate. The maximum inclination would be 90° as then the Arctic circle would reach the Equator and total polar conditions would prevail.

The format for climate is planetary comparisons while weather is more strictly isolated to each planet according to their composition,distance from the Sun and multiple other inputs. To try and foist weather on to planetary climate is a great disservice to climate research , for instance, the development of Arctic sea ice is a property of weather but the area extent of sea across an orbital period is a property of climate by virtue of the degree of inclination involved.

The social enterprise taking the name of 'global warming' bears no real resemblance to climate research regardless as to how many people traffic in the idea of human control over the planet's temperature . When people talk of climate (micro-climate, hot climate,cold climate ect) they are really talking about weather whereas climate is founded on specific astronomical principles which refer inclination to the orbital plane or the planet and to the central Sun.

The expanding/contracting circle with its center of origin at the North pole influences the creation of sea ice and the marvel of modern radar imaging registers that annual evolutionary growth.

So here we are in the 21st century with all this wonderful data while the mechanism based on a surface rotation as a function of the planet's orbital motion goes unheeded even while it can be observed directly from images of another planet.

The technological crowd should get on board for effectively what is proposed for timekeeping basically, in their language, is a 'factory reset' . The instability in narratives between timekeeping and the planetary cycles is currently creating havoc when such things as Arctic sea ice evolution, the seasons, retrograde resolutions, the seasons,variations in the natural noon cycles and many other topics which are help up for inspection and treatment..

Climate, in astronomical terms, looks nothing like the overreaching attempt to blur the distinction with weather insofar as the proper principles are structured and very clear.

Weather can be predicted but planetary climate is fixed by the degree of inclination within a planetary spectrum between Equatorial and Polar. An agency with the title of 'climate predictions' is therefore inappropriate.

As the circle which reaches its maximum 'Arctic circle' circumference in one month from its origins at the North pole on the September Equinox, the evolution of sea ice is now gathering pace. It is a shame that the surface rotation as a function of the orbital motion of the Earth responsible for sea ice evolution is ignored and no true cause given other than a 'tilting' Earth.
