«High tilt =
Cooler polar summers coupled with warmer polar winters = ice growth (assuming there are continents around to support glaciers).
The strategy may result in an increase of reproductive success for many Antarctic species which can only reproduce themselves during
the polar summer.
They concentrate on feeding during
the polar summers primarily around the Channel Islands, Monterey Bay, and the Farallon Islands / Cordell Bank.
Under the 24 hr / day sunlight of
the polar summer, this may occur much sooner than we expect.
The polar summer this year appears to have ended prematurely.
