Answer 1

1. In winter why does wind blow from land to sea near equator region. In winters, the land surface is cool as it loses its heat quickly. But the sea surface is still hotter as water bodies lose heat slowly. So, hot air from sea surface rises up and cool.
2. Cyclone, any large system of winds that circulates about a centre of low atmospheric pressure in a counterclockwise direction north of the Equator and in a clockwise direction to the south. ... These winds are usually not as strong as the cyclonic variety and commonly produce no precipitation.
