The final part of Milankovich cycles is tilt the earth’s axis is tilted at 23.5° this changes over 41 thousand years between 22° and 24.5° this affected the solar input especially in highest latitudes . Sometimes the wobble and the tilt happen at the same time this creates extreme weathers. These are
