#1 The Earth's ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD is caused by Earth's rotation.
#2 The transitions from day to night as well as the 24 hour/day duration - is caused by Earth's rotation.
#3 The Choriolis effect is caused by Earth's rotation.
The SEASONS are caused by Earth's rotation on its AXIS which is do to the unique angle 23 & 1/2 degrees to the sun.
TIDES are not caused by Earth's rotation. That is due to the Moon's gravitational pull on the water.
