Seasons
The seasons are caused by two factors: 1) the tilt of the Earth's axis of rotation relative to its orbit around the Sun, and 2) the Earth's revolution around the Sun. The tilt causes different amounts of sunlight to reach different parts of the Earth throughout the year, with more direct sunlight during the summer and less direct sunlight during the winter. Additionally, the Earth's revolution means different hemispheres receive more or less direct sunlight over the course of a year, contributing to the seasons.

The Earth is not a perfect sphere, but is slightly flattened at the poles. The Earth rotates daily on its tilted axis, causing seasons and influencing climate. Parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude form a grid system to locate positions on the Earth's surface. The Earth revolves around the Sun annually in an elliptical orbit, with the seasons resulting from the tilt of its axis of rotation. Precise geodetic coordinates define locations on the reference ellipsoid used to model the oblate spheroid shape of the Earth.
Intro to Antarctica
This document provides an introduction to Antarctica and the Antarctic region. It explains that Antarctica refers to the continent, while Antarctic refers to the entire southern polar region including surrounding oceans. Most of Antarctica is covered by over 2 km of snow and ice, and large glaciers flow toward the coast, forming ice shelves over the ocean. The polar regions are colder than other areas due to the low angle of incoming sunlight, which provides less energy. Additionally, the polar night during winters leads to long periods without any sunlight. Compared to the Arctic, Antarctica experiences colder average temperatures because it is surrounded by cold ocean currents that do not mix with warmer waters, its higher average elevation, and its position as a continental landmass surrounded by ocean

This document provides an introduction to Antarctica and the Antarctic region. It explains that Antarctica refers to the continent, while Antarctic refers to the entire southern polar region surrounding the continent. Most of Antarctica is covered by over 2 km of snow and ice. The Antarctic region is defined either by ocean boundaries or as anywhere south of the Antarctic Circle, which experiences at least one day and one night of sunlight/darkness per year. The polar regions are colder due to the low angle of incoming sunlight, which provides less energy, as well as periods of extended darkness. Antarctica is even colder than the Arctic because it is surrounded by cold ocean waters that do not mix with warmer currents, it is higher in altitude, and its sea ice reflects
Unit 1 - Earth in space
The document summarizes key information about planet Earth and its place in the solar system. It describes Earth's structure, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere. It also discusses Earth's rotation and revolution around the sun, which causes seasons. The document explains how to locate places using latitude and longitude coordinates on maps and read different types of maps. It provides details on time zones and how the Earth is divided for time.
Seasons
The seasons are caused by two factors: 1) the tilt of the Earth's axis and 2) the Earth's revolution around the sun. The tilt of the Earth's axis causes different locations to receive different amounts of solar radiation throughout the year, similar to how the intensity of light from a flashlight changes depending on its angle. Additionally, the Earth's revolution means the most direct sunlight shifts between the Northern and Southern hemispheres over the course of a year, bringing warmer weather to each hemisphere in turn.
Seasons website
The seasons are caused by two factors: 1) the tilt of the Earth's axis and 2) the Earth's revolution around the Sun. The tilt of the Earth's axis causes different intensities of sunlight throughout the year depending on the angle of sunlight. The Earth's revolution means that different parts of the Earth receive more direct sunlight during different parts of the year, causing the seasons to shift. Specifically, summer occurs in the Northern Hemisphere when it is tilted toward the Sun, winter when it is tilted away, and spring and fall during the equinoxes when the sunlight is most indirect.
The Earth, Rotation and Revolution
The Earth has two movements: rotation and revolution. Rotation is the Earth spinning on its axis every 24 hours, causing day and night. Revolution is the Earth orbiting the Sun every 365 days, causing seasons and years. Due to these movements, different parts of the Earth receive varying amounts of sunlight, influencing climate zones and seasons. The tilt of the Earth's axis and its position in orbit also affect the length of daylight and temperature changes throughout the year.

Parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude form a grid system on a globe, with the equator dividing it into northern and southern hemispheres. The Prime Meridian passes through Greenwich, England and longitude is measured in degrees east and west from there. The document also discusses time zones and how local times differ depending on a place's longitude.
Globes
The document discusses globes and maps. It explains that a globe is a small model of the Earth that shows its round shape and can be used to study concepts like day and night and seasons. A globe also shows the Earth's axis that it rotates around and identifies the North and South Poles. The document further explains other important lines and features on globes like the Equator, Prime Meridian, hemispheres, latitudes and longitudes. It describes how these are used to locate different places on Earth.
Earth's physical geo part 1
The document discusses how the Earth moves in space and why seasons change. It explains that the Earth rotates on its axis over 24 hours, causing day and night, and revolves around the Sun over the course of a year. The Earth's tilted axis and elliptical orbit cause the seasons, with regions facing the Sun more directly experiencing longer days and warmer temperatures. The document also describes the latitudinal zones of the tropics, temperate, and polar regions and how temperatures vary across these zones.

The document summarizes information about the ancient Indus Valley Civilization city of Harappa. It describes how Harappa was discovered in modern-day Pakistan when engineers building railway lines removed bricks from old buildings. Archaeologists later realized it was an ancient city dating back 4,700 years. These cities had fortified walls, elaborate baths and storehouses, and houses built around courtyards connected to drainage systems. Residents practiced crafts like weaving and metalworking. The cities organized trade networks to obtain raw materials from distant lands. By around 3,900 years ago, many cities were abandoned as the rulers lost control and residents moved to smaller settlements, though the exact reasons for the civilization's decline are unknown.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Globe & latitude 1
- 1. GLOBE : LATITUDES AND LONGITUDES FOR CLASS VI AND ix CBSE PRESENTED BY DEVINE1812
- 2. GLOBE
- 3. GLOBE : LATITUDES AND LONGITUDES Globe is a true model (miniature form) of the earth Globes may be of varying size and type
- 4. LOCATION OF POINT/PLACE ON A SPHERE
- 5. AXIS A needle is fixed through the globe in a tilted manner, which is called its axis. Two points on the globe through which the needle passes are two poles – North Pole and South Pole. The real earth has no such needle. It moves around its axis, which is an imaginary line
- 6. LATITUDE
- 7. Points of reference and lines to find out the location of places
- 8. LATITUDE An imaginary line running on the globe divides it into two equal parts. This line is known as the equator the equator is an imaginary circular line All parallel circles from the equator up to the poles are called parallels of latitudes. Latitudes are measured in degrees. The equator represents the zero degree latitude. The northern half of the earth is known as the Northern Hemisphere and the southern half is known as the Southern Hemisphere
- 9. HEMISPHERES
- 10. LATITUDE
- 12. HEAT ZONES OF THE EARTH Torrid Zone - The mid-day sun is exactly overhead at least once a year on all latitudes in between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. This area, therefore, receives the maximum heat and is called the Torrid Zone
- 13. HEAT ZONES OF THE EARTH Temperate Zones -The mid-day sun never shines overhead on any latitude beyond the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The angle of the sun’s rays goes on decreasing towards the poles. As such, the areas bounded by the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle in the Northern Hemisphere, and the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle in the Southern Hemisphere, have moderate temperatures. These are, therefore, called Temperate Zones
- 14. HEAT ZONES OF THE EARTH Frigid Zones - Areas lying between the Arctic Circle and the North Pole in the Northern Hemisphere and the Antarctic Circle and the South Pole in the Southern Hemisphere, are very cold. It is because here the sun does not rise much above the horizon. Therefore, its rays are always slanting and provide less heat. These are, therefore, called Frigid Zones (very cold).
