how does the weather near the sea differ from a place that is inland
Answers
Oceans and seas are large bodies of water which act as climate moderators in coastal areas. Since water heats up slowly than land during day and also cools down slowly at night, it creates pressure gradient. Because of difference in atmospheric pressure (resulted from difference in temperature), sea and land breezes start blowing which moderate the temperature.
Therefore because of this moderating effect of water, climate is more moderate in mild in coastal areas and as you move away from coasts; diurnal as well as annual temperature range increases. That is the reason why Delhi has extreme climate whereas Mumbai experiences a moderate climate.
Impact of ocean currents (both hot and cold), also affect the coastal regions near which these currents move.
The sea affects the climate of a place. Coastal areas are cooler and wetter than inland areas. Clouds form when warm air from inland areas meets cool air from the sea. The centre of continents are subject to a large range of temperatures.
