All information about how the seasons work was taken from Wikipedia:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equinox

To cut a long read short, Astronomical gives seasons based on the shortest/longest day and equinoxes. So in the Northern Hemisphere spring starts on 20 March). Meteorological gives seasons based on months (so in the Northern Hemisphere spring starts on 1 March).
