If the earth wasnt tilted on its axis, what would happen to the earths pressure belts and wind systems?

Answer 1

Why are you asking these same questions again? I answered a very similar one from you 12 hours ago.

Answer 2

Without a tilt to the axis, there wouldn't be a summer to melt the snow and ice in those areas where the mean annual temperature is below freezing. Consequently, ice would build up at all high latitudes, and move into middle latitudes (reflecting more sunlight as it spreads). Earh would have a prolonged ice age. Pressure belts and wind systems would shift closer to the Equator.

Answer 3

They'd look pretty much as they do now, except there'd be hardly any seasonal variation between summer and winter, with the northern and southern hemispheres having opposite seasons. The only annual change in temperature would be a very small six monthly variation due to the changing distance of the Earth from the Sun, and it would affect both hemispheres simultaneously. So we'd still have polar easterly winds, temperate westerlies, trade winds, doldrums, tropical rain, desert belts north and south of the equator and cold polar regions.

Answer 4

I would think minor changes to the wind pattern. There would be changes in the seasons. The earth temperature would remain rather constant, changing only a few degrees because the earth distance from the sun changes during its orbit.

The seasons would be the same in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres instead of opposite as it is now.

I hope this helps!

Answer 5

God only knows, I would assume the North would get warmer and the south would cool. I would think it would have catastrophic effects on global climate until it evened out.

Answer 6

it would remain the same, although the seasons wont exist. there wouldnt be a summer nor winter, in any of the hemisphere.

Answer 7

They would blow normally, it's the rotaion that gives them their curve.
