In the picture, the planet's interior spins on its axis from left to right as shown by the green arrows at the poles. This produces an east to west atmospheric currents shown with a green arrow to indicate right to left flow of clouds. The red arrow indicates the motion of Jupiter's storm, (spot) from left to right, and which is actually an elevated surface feature, a mountain. |
In order to understand the role of gravity in the climatic and weather process in our planet earth, we have to separate weather, climate and seasons.
When we talk of weather, we basically refer to the prevailing state of atmospheric conditions in an environment. This can be sunny, cloudy or rainy.
The climate refers to the most common weather of a given locality which can be hot, cold, humid, temperate, etc.
Season refers to the prevalent state of weather in a given period of the year, which can be rainy or dry season. More rain in a period of the year is rain season while no rain or dry weather is for dry season or summer.
Every process in nature is based on certain laws and principles which have to be followed by all automated operations in the absence of human supervision.
The laws which govern planetary weather, climate and seasons are all based and founded on gravity. Keep in mind, 'gravity is a charge imparted on matter by motion' according to "The General Theory Of Gravitational Dynamics And Life", yet to be published.
For this matter, the spinning motion of the earth drives weather by creating a tangential attraction into the atmosphere which produce equatorial east to west currents. These currents play a very significant role in the transport and dissemination of moisture round the globe.
A planet's rate of spin, which is the length of its day, plays a big role in determining its weather activities. The faster a planet spins, the shorter its day and the more active its weather. An example of this is planet Jupiter (see picture below). However, there other factors which can contribute to different conditions.
The climatic conditions of a planet's interior are divided and determined by the gravitational distribution of its land masses, by attracting and concentrating moisture in some places while dispersing it in others.
The seasons are founded not on the spinning motion of a planet, but on its orbital motion round the sun.
