Question

State the difference between sea breeze and land breeze.

Answer 1

Instructions:

• Explain about the sea breeze and land breeze

Solution:
Land and sea breezes are local winds blowing over the coastal areas.​
During daytime, the land heats up faster than sea.​Thereby, the land develops low air pressure while the sea has high air pressure.
Thus, the air moves from sea towards the land, causing sea breeze.​
Whereas, during night-time, the land cools down faster than sea.​The land develops high air pressure while the sea has low air pressure.
​Thus, the air moves from land towards the sea, causing land breeze.​
