Answers
Explanation:
The land breeze is represented by the flow of the wind from land to water. It is also called offshore wind. The land breeze occurs when the temperature of land becomes lower as compared to adjacent water bodies during the night and early morning. During the last weeks of summer, the temperature of the sea increases the land’s daily temperature. This causes land breezes to last longer. During nights the land becomes cool quickly due to absence of sun. As compared to land, the water bodies have high heat retaining capacity. This causes air above water to have low density and rises above and there is low pressure over water. On the other hand, on the land high pressure is formed. The denser air from the land moves towards the space over water. The movement of wind occurs from high pressure to low pressure zones.Hope it helps you !
