the duration of seasons on Earth

Milankovitch cycles (changes in eccentricity, axial tilt, and precession) alter Earth's orbit and orientation, which changes the timing and distribution of sunlight (seasonal intensity and duration). They do not change the length of the year or Earth's overall reflectivity.
