  • Pourquoi les températures baissent-elles en hiver ?

    2 days ago

    Pourquoi les températures baissent-elles en hiver ?

    Alors chaque année, le même phénomène se répète : les journées raccourcissent, les températures chutent et l'hiver s'installe. Mais pourquoi fait-il plus froid en hiver qu'en été ? La réponse paraît évidente : nous serions plus éloignés du Soleil. Pourtant, cette explication est fausse ! En réalité, dans l'hémisphère Nord, la Terre est même légèrement plus proche du Soleil en janvier qu'en juillet ! Alors comment expliquer ce paradoxe ? Tout repose sur une particularité de notre planète : l'inclinaison de son axe de rotation. En effet, la Terre tourne autour du Soleil en un an, mais son axe n'est pas parfaitement perpendiculaire au plan de son orbite. Il est incliné d'environ 23,5 degrés. Cette inclinaison est à l'origine des saisons. Pour comprendre pourquoi, imaginons une lampe torche éclairant une table. Si vous dirigez la lumière perpendiculairement à sa surface, elle se concentre sur une petite zone. Mais si vous inclinez la lampe, la même quantité de lumière se répartit sur une surface beaucoup plus grande. Par conséquent, chaque centimètre carré reçoit moins d'énergie. C'est exactement ce qui se produit en hiver. Dans l'hémisphère Nord, la Terre est alors orientée de telle manière que les rayons du Soleil arrivent plus obliquement. Leur énergie se répartit donc sur une surface plus importante, ce qui réduit le réchauffement du sol. Mais ce n'est pas tout. L'inclinaison terrestre provoque également un deuxième phénomène essentiel : les journées sont plus courtes. En hiver, le Soleil se lève plus tard et se couche plus tôt. Le sol dispose donc de moins d'heures pour absorber son énergie. À l'inverse, les nuits sont plus longues, ce qui laisse davantage de temps à la surface terrestre pour perdre de la chaleur. Résultat : jour après jour, le bilan énergétique devient déficitaire. La Terre reçoit moins d'énergie solaire qu'elle n'en perd sous forme de rayonnement infrarouge. C'est cette accumulation de pertes qui explique la baisse progressive des températures. D'ailleurs, les journées commencent à rallonger dès le solstice d'hiver, autour du 21 décembre. Pourtant, les températures les plus basses surviennent généralement en janvier ou février. Pourquoi ? Parce que les océans, les sols et l'atmosphère possèdent une inertie thermique : ils continuent à se refroidir pendant plusieurs semaines avant de se réchauffer. Enfin, dans l'hémisphère Sud, les saisons sont inversées. Lorsque l'Europe connaît l'hiver, l'Australie profite de l'été. Ainsi, contrairement à une idée reçue, ce n'est pas la distance entre la Terre et le Soleil qui explique principalement les saisons, mais l'inclinaison de notre planète. Et une différence de seulement 23,5 degrés suffit à transformer radicalement notre climat au fil de l'année. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

    Special Episode: Robert Kolker & The Vanishing Family

    A diagnosis of dementia of any kind is devastating. For those with the hereditary form of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), it could mean an entire family is destined for the same fate. In this week’s TPWKY book club episode, award-winning author Robert Kolker paints an intimate portrait of one such family in The Vanishing Family: Love, Fate, and the Quest to End Dementia. Through Kolker’s compassionate and incisive writing, readers learn about FTD alongside this family and gain a unique insight into the painful and complex decisions the siblings face. Kolker also presents a scoping view of the history and possible future of dementia research, one that may allow fate to be rewritten. Tune in for all this and more.

    Capillary Refill Time (CRT)

    In this episode, Dr. Sergio Zanotti discusses the assessment of peripheral perfusion as a tool to guide treatment in septic shock. Specifically, he dives into Capillary Refill Time. He is joined by Dr. Eduardo Kattan, a critical care and anesthesia physician. Dr. Kattan is an Assistant Professor at the Pontificia Catholic University of Chile, where he also serves as Adult Critical Care Program Director and Director of Research and Academics in the Department of Critical Care Medicine. A prolific investigator, he focuses his research on septic shock and medical education. Dr. Rattan is the Co-Principal Investigator of the recently published ANDROMEDA-SHOCK 2 clinical trial.

    The Right Way To Open A Shaken Soda Can

    A can of fizzy drink has been violently shaken. The pressure is building, the bubbles are ready to erupt, and Michael Stevens is about to open it. But Hannah Fry has a trick up her sleeve. Can a few taps really prevent an explosion?This week on The Rest Is Science, Hannah and Michael begin with the surprisingly complicated physics of carbonation before tackling a much bigger question: can we really trust science?From the replication crisis and scientific studies that fail to stand up to scrutiny, to the strange incentives that shape what gets published, they explore why even respected scientific discoveries can turn out to be wrong...and why that might not be such a bad thing.Along the way, they investigate whether Archimedes really could have moved the Earth with a long enough lever, why aircraft are designed to withstand enormous pressure changes, and what happens when we lose our curiosity.Plus, an unexpected discussion about nuns, the dangers of absolute certainty, and why asking questions might be one of the most important things we can do.-------------------"For more information about Cancer Research UK, their research, breakthroughs and how you can support them, visit https://cancerresearchuk.org/restisscienceCancer Research UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (1089464), Scotland (SC041666), the Isle of Man (1103) and Jersey (247).
