Seasons: a little about each one. Have you ever imagined what the world would be like if planet earth didn't rotate around itself in a movement called rotation?
Have you ever imagined what the world would be like if planet earth didn't rotate around itself in a movement called rotation?
This important movement of the planet results in changes. important natural resources. If the earth didn't rotate around itself, in one movement. that lasts 24 hours, half the world's population would not receive sunlight e. would live in darkness.
In addition to rotation, planet Earth makes another movement called. translation. Translation is associated with terrestrial rotation and is characterized by the. Earth's movement around the Sun. This move allows multiple parts of the. terrestrial globe receive solar radiation with different intensities along the. year.
Solstice: At some times of the year, the days and nights have different lengths. O. solstice is the name given to the beginning of summer and winter and the date of 21st. December starts the beginning of summer in the southern hemisphere and winter in the hemisphere. north. The June 21st solstice marks the beginning of winter in the southern hemisphere e. of summer in the northern hemisphere.
Equinox: O. equinox is the nomenclature used when the days and nights have the same. duration, 12 hours each. At that moment, both hemispheres receive the same. amount of sunlight, marking the beginning of spring and autumn.
The tropics, especially in the vicinity of the line. Ecuador, are located at lower latitudes where the sun's rays. more directly. In these parts of the planet, the “central” zone, a. tilt of the Earth's axis does not have such a large influence on the amount of. received sun, which is more constant.
In regions of higher latitudes, the solar incidence is. more variable, which ensures that the seasons are marked and more. easily perceived.
In this topic, we'll look at each station and how they do it. impact the daily lives of human beings.
From Latin: primo vere, in early summer.
Spring starts on September 23rd and ends on September 21st. December. This time of year is marked by flowers. Spring is very colorful. because it is the season of the year that the rebirth of flora begins again. terrestrial Spring is a transitional season between winter and summer.
Temperatures rise again, but not with the same. summer glowing. It represents the first epoch and the days are back to being. longer in preparation for the summer. Spring also marks the beginning of. animal reproduction, as it is at this time of year that the animals build their own. nests.
As this is the time of flowers, insects like butterflies and. bees, fly from flower to flower in search of the nectar they have.
Spring is one of the most pleasant times of the year, therefore. it keeps the winter cool with the taste of summer.
From Latin: veranum, veranuns tempus, spring time or. spring.
Summer starts on December 21st and ends on December 21st. March. During the passage of summer, the days are hotter and longer than. the nights. Summer attests to the end of spring and its days are marked by. much louder thermometers.
Generally, during the summer, the trees are leafy, laden with fruit. As a result of the vaporization of the waters, the sky is at. sometimes overcast and it rains a lot because of the accumulation of water in rivers and seas.
As the season is very hot, accumulated water is. transported to the atmosphere in the form of vapor and the process results in rain. heavy and fleeting at this time of year.
Summer is a symbol of vacations, parties, family gatherings, conversations on the sidewalk and the atmosphere is joyful.
From Latin: autumn.
Autumn starts on March 21st and ends on March 21st. June. This season of the year is the bridge that separates summer from winter. During the. autumn, the temperature starts to drop, preparing us for the low temperatures. of winter.
In this season, days are no longer longer than nights. To adapt to the foreshadowing of the next season, leaves start to fall off. trees, giving a lush appearance to the landscapes.
The days start to get shorter and cooler during the. Autumn and the fruits that ripened during the summer begin to loosen. trees. This is why autumn is also known as the time of harvest, as it is at this time that the great harvests occur.
The gardens and parks gain a carpet of leaves from all over. sizes and colors. Many animals stock up on food at this time of year, so no. winter it is practically impossible to risk leaving their holes to search. what to eat.
This is the season where the sunset takes on a hue. orange with red blends, making a stunning visual impact at. sights.
From Latin: hibernu, tempus hibernus, hibernal tense
And then winter comes. The main feature of. winter is intense cold. In many countries, the temperature is as high as 30°C. under zero. Winter starts right after autumn on June 21st. southern hemisphere and December 21 in the north.
Days during winter are shorter and it gets dark well. earlier. In some countries, a hallmark of winter is snow. Although here in Brazil it is not common to snow, some states have already seen snow fall. in winter, mainly in southern Brazil.
Other states are marked by drizzle and light rain. pratically everyday. This is the case, for example, in São Paulo and Rio de. January.
Winter is synonymous with warm blankets, bonnets on the head, boots on the feet and the cuisine is all focused on food and beverages that warm the body.
