Daylight over the year

Estimated daylight (sunrise-to-sunset) duration in Ercilla along the year.

The longest daylight at latitude 38.06° S is about 14h 49m around the summer solstice in December, while the shortest is about 9h 31m around the winter solstice in June.

These are approximate astronomical estimates, using solar-declination equations documented by NOAA and a standard sunrise/sunset horizon of −0.833°. Twilight is not included. Terrain, altitude and actual atmospheric conditions can change observed daylight, particularly near the poles. Distances are approximate north–south distances along a meridian on a mean-radius Earth; the nearest polar circle is taken at 66.56°.

About latitude comparisons

When comparing cities at the same latitude, such as Ercilla and its global counterparts, it is important to remember that while they share identical daylight hours and similar solar angles throughout the year, their climates may differ drastically. Factors including elevation, proximity to oceans, and dominant wind patterns shape the local environment just as much as solar positioning.

The results shown here are cities located within ±0.5 degrees of Ercilla's parallel (-38.06°), which covers roughly 55 kilometers (34 miles) north or south of its exact coordinate.

Frequently asked questions

What is the longitude of Ercilla?
