Their findings, published in the scientific journal Chaos, reveal surprising connections between solar heat, Earth's temperature, and seismic activity. Sunspots are dark patches on the sun caused ...
So, is Earth hotter in January than in July? That's logical, but false. The geography of the Southern Hemisphere cancels out the variations in Earth’s distance from the sun.
Since Kepler's laws of motion dictate that celestial bodies orbit more slowly when farther from the sun, we are now moving at ...
As summer settles in and temperatures climb in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s impossible to forget just how much the sun affects life on our planet. The sun may appear to be constant from day to ...
Researchers explore the likelihood that Earth's climate, as affected by solar heat, plays a role in seismic activity. Using mathematical and computational methods, they analyzed earthquake data ...

This is Earth's energy budget, and it's now well and truly out of balance. Our recent research found this imbalance has more than doubled over the last 20 years.
Furthest? Yes, that is correct! Earth and the sun reached this point at 3:55 p.m. on Thursday. At that point in its orbit, the Earth was 94.5 million miles away from the sun.
Earth Earth’s mantle may have hidden plumes venting heat from its core A ‘ghost plume’ identified deep in the mantle beneath Oman suggests there may be more heat flowing out of Earth’s ...
Real world measurements of how much extra heat the Earth is trapping are well beyond most climate models. That’s a real problem.
