It is a 100% geometric certainty that variable axial inclination is
not the cause of variations in daylight/darkness over the course of a
year and it is with the same certainty that I present the actual
cause of why people in the Northern hemisphere are experiencing longer
periods of daylight while their counterparts in the Southern
hemisphere are experiencing less.

Unless you want to congratulate yourself that you know what causes day
and night via axial rotation,I assure you that the present explanation
for variations in day and night do not work and while Copernicus
explained the cause in terms of variable axial/equatorial
inclination,that explanation has to be modified completely -

"..the equator and the earth's axis must be understood to have a
variable inclination. For if they stayed at a constant angle, and were
affected exclusively by the motion of the center, no inequality of
days and nights would be observed."
Copernicus Chapter 11 De Revolutionibus



If the concept is, as you seem to be saying, both easy to understand
and important then surely peer-reviewed publication in a main-stream
publication is the way to go?


It is so easy to understand using just a simple animation and its
planetary graphical counterpart that I am bewildered that nobody has
yet to find it enjoyable much less get a stamp of approval -

The rotational orientation of Uranus is just useful for explaining
what occurs for any given location on Earth by isolating orbital
motion and its characteristics.A person just processes the orbital
motion seperately to axial rotation and concludes that a location
turns 360 degrees to the central Sun as an orbital component.


Please explain in detail why this has not been done or if it has been
done what happened.

Thank you.

The mess was created a few centuries ago by tying everything to axial
co-ordinates and introducing a fictional analemma based on using
variable inclination to the Sun to explain the Equation of Time
variations in the natural noon cycle -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analemma

The variations in the natural noon cycles are due to the global
orbital change in orientation of a location to the Sun allied with
constant axial rotation and natural noon as a benchmark just as I have
explained before and this ridiculous axial tilting Earth/analemma as
a means to explain the natural noon cycles is more of the same solar/
sidereal time trash that is preventing appreciation of the actual
mechanism derived from the motions of the Earth.

The same scientists who introduce urgency into climate discussions on
a global scale do not have a basic handle on what causes seasonal
variations in daylight and darkness let alone the more complex
hemispherical weather patterns insofar as the original explanation of
variable axial/equatorial inclination is still being utilised.If a
community cannot be trusted to explain simple seasonal effects then
they certainly cannot be trusted with long term climate modelling.
