Question

How are monsoon winds different from land and sea breeze?

Answer 1

Land and sea breezes occur on a daily basis while monsoon winds are seasonal or we can say annual winds.
The monsoon winds blow during particular period of a season and then reverses its direction after that season is over.
Land and sea breeze occur every day throughout the year. While sea breeze blows during the day, land breeze blows during night.

We can compare sea and land breeze with monsoon winds. Monsoon winds are just like the sea and land breeze but it is on a larger scale.

Monsoon winds blows south west during summer season ( in India) like sea breeze blows in a particular direction ( from sea to land) during the day.

But in winter the monsoon winds reverses its direction from south west to north east just like the opposite of sea breeze ( land breeze ; from land to sea) during night.

➜ Sea Breeze – Breeze that blows from the massive water bodies are termed as Sea Breeze. These type of breezes normally occur during the summer and spring season.

➜ Land Breeze – The name says it all. The wind that blows from the land is either called land breeze or and Offshore breeze. This type of breeze normally occurs during the night and early morning.
