    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropics

    The tropics constitute 39.8% of Earth's surface area [1] and contain 36% of Earth's landmass. [2] As of 2014, the region was home also to 40% of the world's population, and this figure was then projected to reach 50% by 2050.

  3. Tropic of Cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropic_of_Cancer

    The Tropic of Cancer's position is not fixed, but constantly changes because of a slight wobble in the Earth's longitudinal alignment relative to the ecliptic, the plane in which the Earth orbits around the Sun. Earth's axial tilt varies over a 41,000-year period from about 22.1 to 24.5 degrees, and as of 2000 is about 23.4 degrees, which will ...

    The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23°26′09.8″ N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23°26′09.8″ S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface. The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23°26′09.8″ S and the Antarctic Circle at 66°33′50.2″ S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

  5. Tropic of Capricorn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropic_of_Capricorn

    The Tropic of Capricorn's position is not fixed, but constantly changes because of a slight wobble in the Earth's longitudinal alignment relative to its orbit around the Sun. Earth's axial tilt varies over a 41,000 year period from about 22.1 to 24.5 degrees and currently resides at about 23.4 degrees. This wobble means that the Tropic of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troposphere

    From the planetary surface of the Earth, the average height of the troposphere is 18 km (11 mi; 59,000 ft) in the tropics; 17 km (11 mi; 56,000 ft) in the middle latitudes; and 6 km (3.7 mi; 20,000 ft) in the high latitudes of the polar regions in winter; thus the average height of the troposphere is 13 km (8.1 mi; 43,000 ft).

    The tropics have been historically defined as lying between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn, at latitudes 23°26′09.8″ (or 23.43605°) north and south, respectively. [1] According to the American Meteorological Society, the poleward fringe of the subtropics is at latitudes approximately 35° north and south, respectively. [2]
