Question

Illustrate and explain the difference between sea breeze and land breeze.

Answer 1

Hey!!! Here's ur answer......

Sea breeze - Breeze (wind current) blowing from sea to land is called sea breeze.

Water gets heated as well as cool down very slowly. Due to this reason at night warm air currents from sea or water body blows towards the land where the atmosphere is already cool.

Land breeze - Breeze (wind current) blowing from land to sea is called land breeze.

Land gets heated as well as cooles down quickly, compared to water. Due to this reason at day time warm air current blows from land to sea where the atmosphere is already cool.

Answer 2

Answer:

: Sea breeze: The land gets heated up by the heat radiated by the sun, much faster than

the water during daytime. This heats up the air over the land and it expands and hence the

hot air rises up and creates a vacuum. The cool air from the sea occupies the space left by

the hot air. The warm air from the land moves towards the sea to complete the cycle. The

air from the sea is called the sea breeze.

Land breeze: It is a reverse process. It takes place at night. The land cools down quickly and

sea water remains hot. This heats up the air over the sea and it expands and hence the hot

air rises up and creates a vacuum. The cool air from the land occupies the space left by the

hot air. And hence the cool air moves from the land to the sea and is known as the land

breeze.
