How does axial tilt affect atmospheric pressure and wind?
I'm working on an earht-like map and I'm having a hard time understanding where to put the high and low pressure zones. Here's some background info first.
Axial tilt: 25 degrees
Tropics latitude: 25 degrees
Polar circle latitude: 65 degrees
How would axial tilt affect the location of the Hadley cell, Ferrell cell, and etc?
Does it impact the location of pressure zones? If so, by how much?
Would I need to shift the latitude of the pressure zones? Or would the high and low pressure zones remain at 30 and 60 degrees respectively
Would the be larger because of the slightly more extreme seasons?
I've tried following Azélor on Cartographer's Guild and Artifexian on Youtube but no one has answered the question regarding axial tilt.
Thank you so much for any help and if there is any information I should add here or if I put the wrong tags please let me know. Thank you!
