Were the Earth to have a maximum 90 degree inclination to the Sun using the same 24 hour budget and the same mean value of 12 hours of daylight/12 hours of darkness,all latitudes would experience that budget entirely differently and much like they do in extreme Northern/Southern latitudes where large areas of the planet would have long periods of daylight followed by long periods of darkness. The degree of inclination of a planet determines not only how rapidly or gently areas of the planet transition from winter to summer but how much of the surface experiences those swings.If the Earth had the same rotational and orbital characteristics as it does now but with the 82 degree inclination of Uranus then the swings would be huge with little or no Spring/Fall conditions over large areas of the planet with all the consequences for surface conditions.In this case a polar climate does not mean it is necessarily colder,only that the temperature budget for the planet and its mean annual value follows the daylight/darkness budget and how it is experienced across latitudes throughout the year.

You've not answered my question. You want the word 'regardless' explained in respect to daylight/darkness budget for a planet over the course of a year based on inclination and it has already been dealt with in the two posts I sent.It also runs in tandem with a planetary temperature budget and how locations receive there allocation of solar radiation or lack of it over the course of a year. If the Earth had a zero inclination or a 90 degree inclination it would have the same day/night and global temperature budget as it does now with its 23 1/2 degree inclination however with an 90 degree inclination and a polar climate it would experience temperature fluctuations in a much more extreme way than it does today.A global polar climate does not mean it is colder as the hemispherical swings in daylight/darkness would be more pronounced over large areas whereas a zero degree Equatorial climate would register no fluctuations of variations. http://www.daviddarling.info/images/...gs_changes.jpg The inclination of Uranus is fixed at 82 degrees to the ecliptic axis whereas the Earth has a 23 1/2 degree inclination and the polar coordinates turn in a circle around that ecliptic axis as a consequence of the orbital behavior of the Earth even if no time lapse footage exists to demonstrate this motions.Perhaps the Chinese will get around to it - http://www.msss.com/mars_images/moc/...mericas250.jpg True climate change would occur within a spectrum and if the Earth's inclination were to increase it would acquire a more polar climate,if less then an equatorial climate. For one post I thought I saw a flicker of recognition but with that reply that flicker went out.Go ahead and destroy the mind and spirit of humanity for in 80 years fossil fuels will not be an issue and you will have ruined climate studies and its connection to biological and geological evolution.When small minds get hold of a huge and complex topic like climate and render it into a peevish exercise in fear it can be a sight to behold.

What about venus though? Venus has little over a 2 degree inclination which corresponds to an Equatorial climate - http://homepages.spa.umn.edu/~llrw/a..._obliquity.gif A planet cannot have an inclination beyond 90 degrees hence I see what you were trying to do but then again the climate spectrum is suppose to appeal to those who truly get the point of zero inclination as an equatorial climate as opposed to the old 'no tilt/no seasons' ideology which is now unsuitable for 21st century purposes. Keep on scaring the wider population with the exceptionally narrow view of climate and in a century there will be no terrestrial sciences left to research having painted yourselves into a corner and as many have discovered,it is close to impossible to research the past evolutionary history of the planet without variations in climate and whatever secondary inputs cause changes in weather at different latitudes.On the other hand global climate is defined astronomically and by the degree of inclination,all it takes are people who are not on the current bandwagon to see the bigger picture. |

Tilt/Inclination and climate
All planets process this following motion with respect to the central and through the circle of illumination over the course of an annual cycle hence the degree of inclination refers only to the ecliptic axis -
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...precession.svg It can be seen to a 100% observational certainty and defines what type of climate a planet has - http://www.newscientist.com/data/ima...2529-1_800.jpg Breaking the idea of axial precession as it is presently understood is as difficult as demonstrating that the planet has two surface rotations to the central Sun,it shouldn't be but it is. |

Presently what they consider a 'no tilt/no seasons'perspective is really an Equatorial climate so readers are half way there. As a planet's inclination increases then they can consider what happens at different latitudes throughout an annual circuit.Were the Earth's inclination to move towards the Equatorial end of the spectrum its weather conditions would begin to lose the transition from summer to winter experienced over large areas of its surface whereas an increase in inclination would see a more pronounced and abrupt transition. It is there for researchers to play around with once they get over their obsession with human control over the planet's temperature by way of fossil fuels. |

Perhaps you will enlighten us about Mercury's climate with its double sunrises, double sunsets and stationary (almost) sun, Even though daily rotation drowns it out,all locations on Earth have two apparent sunrises and two apparent sunsets and that is what you are seeing in those images of Uranus as daily rotation runs South to North while the orbital sunrise/sunset runs East to West - http://www.daviddarling.info/images/...gs_changes.jpg What do you think causes the person at the North/South polar latitudes to experience a single day/night cycle if not a surface rotation to the central Sun ?. Looking out the window at a winter storm out there this evening,people should be aware of the dynamics which make it so without having to be dragged into an explanation that has been constantly before them for quite a few years now. The Earth doesn't tilt towards and away from the Sun Collins,if you take into account two surface rotations and subsequently two different types of apparent sunrises and sunsets you will get there eventually by way of the dynamics of the planet. |

Exactly. It doesn't tilt. It keeps pointing to the same pole star. Only you invoke a tilting Earth. Your ridiculous explanation has a non existent tilting to replace the two unrelated facts, The rotation of the Earth and the Earth's orbit around the sun. |

Actually, you made the claim, so you need to answer it. Stated a fact son ,if you can't learn the difference and are unable to substitute the old 'no tilt/no seasons with an Equatorial climate then I can't help you further. Maybe you are better off with the 'Sun crossing the celestial equator' explanation for the change in seasons as I enjoy the visual affirmation of what constitutes a zero inclination and a 90 degree inclination. Presently what they consider a 'no tilt/no seasons'perspective is really an Equatorial climate so readers are half way there. So, what are the characteristics of a "no seasons" climate? Jupiter has an Equatorial climate with its 3 degree inclination but perhaps you haven't that type of intelligence needed to figure out why the great storm has little orbital influences unlike the Earth's inclination which influences hurricane and typhoon seasons at different orbital points. 'No seasons' climate indeed !,I wouldn't have expected any different from the dullest and most anti-astronomical creatures ever to inhabit this great planet. If you can't work with the climate spectrum then perhaps you are better off with your 'tilting' Earth ideology.
