Convection is the process responsible for land and sea breeze. Convection is the process of transfer of heat from one place to another by the actual movement of the particles from one place to another. Particles carry heat from one place to another. In land and sea breeze, there is an actual movement of the particles from land to sea and from sea to land.
Radiation is the process in which heat flows from one object to another object either through the medium or through vacuum, without heating up the space in between, is called radiation. In convection, medium is necessary for heat transfer from one end to another but in radiation, no medium is required for transferring of heat.
