Answer:
During the day, the sun heats up both the ocean surface and the land. Water is a good absorber of the energy from the sun. ... 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.

Explanation:
This airflow is caused by the temperature differences between the sand and water. The air above the hot sand heats up and starts to rise as it becomes less dense, creating a local low air pressure zone. Above the cold-water dish the air cools and becomes denser, leading to a local high air pressure zone.
