I thought that too, my friend told me about worldbuilding and I had heard that GRRM had used a binary star system for one of his books and so I thought I would choose a different astronomical phenomena... only to find out it was already a popular idea. It hasn't stopped me learning a tonne about geography and biology though and while originality is always good, narratively, having a built world is nothing compared to writing ability. Your world can be boring as hell but as long you have interesting characters and some meaningful text, people will like it.

Thanks for explaining that part about the Coriolis effect. My geography teachers never bothered to say why it had the three different cells. They just sort of hand-waves it by saying "Coriolis effect" and didn't say why. I studied geography at A-level, but you managed to teach me something interesting in the first two minutes of this video, that is directly related to my geography syllabus that I somehow managed to go 4 years without learning.

The first 2 links in the doobly-doo are for Geoff's Climate Cookbook, though a lot of the same processes have already been covered by Edgar here on Artifexian. The Climate Cookbook is more for the accuracy/verisimilitude focused worldbuilder with extra time. Edgar's technique is a lot more practical.

Yeah - for example, the ITC follows (with a time lag of a few weeks, and distorted in shape by the landscape) the latitude where the sun is in the zenith over the seasons - thus, your planet's axial tilt determines the limits of latitude within which it will move, and thus also the latitudes of the cells associated with it.

No the cells are not effected by axial tilt. Think about it, in the video the number of cells increased the faster the planet rotated irregardless of axial tilt. Axial tilt will determine the locations of the tropics of cancer and capricorn and the artic circles not the cell boundaries. On Earth these happen to be the same but just look at jupiter. Axial tilit plays a role in seasonality not in the latitudanal extent of the cells.

This is something I really would not have thought about on my own! Turns out one of my character's country would be a really crappy place to live... Really hot, frequent storms, hurricanes, so I might need to tweak that! Other than that, how would the planets rotation angle affect this? If my world's is tilted roughly 10 degrees, how does that work?
@KohuGaly
@KohuGaly 6 жыл бұрын
tilt affects how seasons work. bigger tilt = bigger daytime/nighttime change between summer/winter. Bigger tilt also means the planet is colder overall, because winters are colder = more snowfall which reflects more sunlight. Summers also get hotter, which means they radiate more heat away. The size of the polar caps may also affect oceanic currents, if one or both of the caps at least partially covers an ocean. Water can transfer much more heat than winds. They follow the same rules as atmospheric circulation, except there may be continents in the way. In combination with the excentricity of orbit it also affects which hemisphere is colder. When planet is closer to the sun it moves faster, so that season will be shorter and vice versa. In case of earth, it is closest to the sun in January, which is why winters are shorter in the northern hemisphere.
@Hjulben
@Hjulben 6 жыл бұрын
Im not an expert, but im making a world that also has a 10 degree tilt so heres my guess. As the tropical belt isnt as large (because of the lower tilt) the very hot area around equator would be smaller and not as hot. This would probably mean milder weather compared to here on earth but tropical storms would still happen. This is also affected by the placement of your oceans and landmasses as storms tend to die out once they hit land. Im guessing the general lower temperatures from the lower axial tilt would result in tamer weather, but it depends on a lot of things that im not qualified to answer with my high school C-level natural geography.

I’m building a fantasy world, called Pentrine, that’s actually just a few continents ringed by massive walls. These concave walls are roughly two miles high, with opaque “curtains” rising off them that reach into the upper atmosphere. No wind can travel over or through these curtains. I’m having difficulty finding reputable sources that discuss such fantastical ideas. Would they create enormously powerful downdrafts or updrafts depending on location and season? Would they be raked with constant storms and tornadoes? I have no idea. But I need to figure out the gist of it by saturday, and it’s fun to think about. Thanks for this video.

As I understand it, you can't have just one big Hadley cell in each hemisphere (as shown at 3:04). Surface winds would be easterly all over the world, so there would be a net eastward force on the atmosphere as a whole. Surface drag has to balance between easterly and westerly zones. Slower rotation would tend to eliminate the polar cells, though, and to weaken the global zonal pattern relative to more localized patterns like land/shore circulation and the somewhat analogous patterns around differences in altitude.

"turtle? there is no turtle, this world is carried by a disabled toothless crocodile" yeah, well, worldbuilding...

I have a flat and circular world (a la Discworld) and first you need to figure out how your sun is moving. Is it looping over and under your world? Is the world itself spinning? You'll get different insolation patterns depending. For example: if lopping and spinning, you'll get a circular pattern of insolation like the center of your world is the north pole and the outer rim is the south pole. If looping and stationary you'll get horizontal bands across the world. Or, you could "cheat" and have the sky basically be magical (an illusion or construct) and you can get any kind of variation on a circular pattern you want.

I love coming to your content and referencing it over and over. I do have one question though, I am currently working on a world with an axial tilt of 125 degrees as such my tropics are at 55 N and S, while my polar circles are at 35 N and S (assuming I calculated those correctly). How would I go about plotting winds and such? Would I just apply the same principles discussed in the video but opposite hot/cold zones and backwards winds?

The western coasts at 60° latitude (with an Earth-like rotation rate) tend to get a lot of precipitation, especially if there’s a nearby mountain range to the east. This is why Bergen is so famously rainy.

The subtropics are at the meeting point of the Ferrel and Hadley cells, which is why weather patterns there change directions every six months.

What does it mean for the sun to rise in the west and set in the east? Those are normally understood as relative directions, defined by the planet's rotation: east is the half of the sky where the sun rises, north is to the left of east, and so on. If you've got a sun rising in what you're calling "west" you can just flip your map around and have things match the usual convention.

Late question regarding precipitation: We know that, on planets with 3 cells per hemisphere, including Earth, the latitudes where air pressure is high due to cooler winds (such as the Subtropical Ridges located between the Hadley and Ferrel Cells) tend to be pretty dry (with the Sahara Desert being one famous example) compared to the latitudes where air pressure is low due to warmer winds (such as on the Intertropical Convergence Zone, where the Amazon Rainforest is located), and that much of this is due to the Coriolis Effect, right? Would a slower rotation speed make the Coriolis Effect seem weaker, causing (in addition to there being fewer cells per hemisphere) the differences in prcipitation levels for wetter and drier latitudes to be less pronounced (with only the amount of sunlight primarily affecting precipitation levels)?

More stuff I've been loathe to work out. Well, now I must figure out how this will work with a torodial world. Offhand guess: The rimward side would operate much as any spherical world, except for the polar region. The polar rings would operate similarly to the tidally-locked world. Figuring out the hubward side is where my mind breaks.

Britain had a very large empire in the tropics, but the places that were settled in a big way i.e. The US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, and South Africa are all wholly or partly in the temperate zones, and Australia and Canada have their populations concentrated in their most temperate parts. Even in India, New Delhi is in the far North of the country and the British enclave at Shimla was right up in the Himalayan foothills.
