In coastal areas, cold air flows in the day from sea to land. It is called …….

Answer:
Explanation:
A sea-breeze front is a weather front created by a sea breeze, also known as a convergence zone. The cold air from the sea meets the warmer air from the land and creates a boundary like a shallow cold front.
Answer:
The answer is sea breeze or we can say it as Convection as well.
During the day the land gets heated faster than the water. The hot air rises up and cooler air from the sea rushes towards the land. This is called the Sea breeze
Explanation:
Land and sea breezes are more common in summer in higher latitudes, but all year round in
the tropics.
Sea breezes are strongest when the thermal difference between the land and sea are greatest.
This is typically in the early summer period when inland temperatures have begun to increase
and sea temperatures, which typically lag behind the air temperature, are still relatively low
The extent of the circulation varies according to different sources. It may extend about 20
kilometres seaward and 60 to 70 kilometres inland (Miller 1966), or not more than 50
kilometres. the vertical extent as
being up to 700 hPa.
Due to thermal stability, usually in the form of a surface temperature inversion, the land
breeze is usually very shallow. Ground friction tends to restrict the wind to 2 to 4 knots
(about 1 to 2 ms-1), whereas the sea breeze usually attains speeds of 10 to 20 knots (±5 to 10
ms-1). The sea breeze accelerates until ground friction is sufficient to counter the pressure
gradient, or the circulation weakens
