QUESTION -
how are the land breeze and sea breeze produced?
ANSWER -
A sea-breeze (or onshore breeze) is a wind from the sea that develops over land near coasts. It is formed by increasing temperature differences between the land and water which create a pressure minimum over the land due to its relative warmth and forces higher pressure, cooler air from the sea to move inland.
At night, the land is cooler than the sea. So when the air over the sea is hot it gets less dense and rises up. The cool air from the land moves towards the sea and takes the hot air's space . This is called land breeze.
Answer:
Explanation:The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land. The land loses heat quickly after the sun goes down and the air above it cools too. ... This causes a small temperature gradient between the ocean surface and the nearby land at night and the wind will blow from the land to the ocean creating the land breeze.
