Seasonal Changes

Seasonal changes refer to the variations in climate and environment that occur throughout the year as a result of the Earth’s axial tilt and orbit around the sun. These changes manifest in alterations in temperature, precipitation, and daylight hours, significantly influencing ecosystems, weather patterns, and biological processes. The four primary seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—each have distinct characteristics and are marked by specific changes in weather, plant life, and animal behaviors. For example, spring usually brings warmer temperatures and blooming flowers; summer often features the hottest weather; autumn is characterized by cooler temperatures and leaf color changes; and winter typically includes cold temperatures and, in many regions, snowfall. Seasonal changes affect not only the natural world but also cultural practices, agricultural cycles, and human activities, as communities adapt to the rhythm of seasonal variations.
