SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the historical changes in the Earth's axial tilt, with specific inquiries about its degrees at various points in history, ranging from 1000 to 5000 years ago. Participants suggest using online resources to find accurate estimates of the Earth's axial tilt. The original poster is conducting private research focused on the climate of China during the last 5000 to 1000 years, indicating a need for precise historical data on axial tilt.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Earth's axial tilt and its significance in climate science
  • Familiarity with historical climate data analysis
  • Basic research skills for sourcing scientific information online
  • Knowledge of the impact of axial tilt on seasonal climate variations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the historical degrees of Earth's axial tilt using scientific databases
  • Explore the relationship between axial tilt and climate patterns in paleoclimatology
  • Investigate tools for reconstructing historical climate data
  • Learn about the Milankovitch cycles and their effects on Earth's climate
USEFUL FOR

Climate scientists, researchers in paleoclimatology, and anyone studying historical climate changes, particularly in relation to the Earth's axial tilt.

The degree of the Earth's axis has changed throughout history.
If I am not mistaken, I believe that people can make very accurate estimates about the historic degrees of the Earth's axial tilt.

If this is the case, then I would like ask some questions
1. What was the degree of the Earth's axial tilt 1000 years ago?
2. What was the degree of the Earth's axial tilt 1500 years ago?
3. What was the degree of the Earth's axial tilt 2000 years ago?
4. What was the degree of the Earth's axial tilt 2500 years ago?
5. What was the degree of the Earth's axial tilt 3000 years ago?
6. What was the degree of the Earth's axial tilt 5000 years ago?

I would like thank you in advance for anyone who has provided the answers to these questions.

*To the moderators, these are not homework questions. It should be obvious, since this doesn't even sound like homework problems. Instead, I ask these because of my own private research*

Hi TheAzn!

Have you tried googling for Earth's axial tilt?
I believe that will give you your answers.

Btw, what kind of private research are you doing?

Hmmm, I haven't thought of that. Thank you for the suggestion!

My research will be based on the climate of China 5000 to 1000 years ago.
