Common time conversions


Definition: Year

The mean tropical year is defined as the period of time for the mean ecliptic longitude of the Sun to increase by 360 degrees. Since the Sun's ecliptic longitude is measured with respect to the equinox, the tropical year comprises a complete cycle of the seasons; because of the biological and socio-economic importance of the seasons, the tropical year is the basis of most calendars.

The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry and the International Union of Geological Sciences have jointly recommended using defining the annus, with symbol a, as the length of the tropical year in the year 2000:

a = 31556925.445 seconds (approximately 365.24219265 ephemeris days)

We default to using the Gregorian year on this site, but you can select a specific type of year by entering the full name like "tropical year".


Definition: Year

The draconic year, draconitic year, eclipse year, or ecliptic year is the time taken for the Sun (as seen from the Earth) to complete one revolution with respect to the same lunar node (a point where the Moon's orbit intersects the ecliptic). This period is associated with eclipses: these occur only when both the Sun and the Moon are near these nodes; so eclipses occur within about a month of every half eclipse year. Hence there are two eclipse seasons every eclipse year. The average duration of the eclipse year is 346.620075883 days (346 d 14 h 52 min 54 s) (at the epoch J2000.0).
