Name two patterns of Earth that we can observe?
Earth's climate is determined by global patterns of temperature, pressure, and wind that affect weather all over the world. These patterns are caused by the tilt of Earth's axis and its orbit around the Sun. The four main seasons - spring, summer, fall, and winter - are caused by the tilt of Earth's axis.
Patterns of Earth's Climate
Patterns on Earth are affected by a number of factors, including the tilt of the Earth's axis and the shape of the Earth's orbit around the sun. Patterns on Earth are also affected by the amount of heat energy released by the Sun, as well as the amount of energy reflected back into space. Patterns on Earth are responsible for the seasonal changes in temperature, as well as the different climate zones around the globe.
