sunset: Definition and Much More From Answers.com (921 words)
The color of a sunset may be enhanced by atmospheric phenomena such as clouds, smoke and smog produced by natural processes or human activity, and by ash from volcanic eruptions.
The timing of sunset varies with the time of year and the latitude of the location from which it is viewed (and, in local time, with the location's precise longitude).
Changes in timing of sunset are driven by the axial tilt of Earth and the planet's movement around its orbit, however in the Northern Hemisphere (for example), the earliest sunset is not at the winter solstice around December 21, but rather in early December.
