What cause a sea breeze?
When it's in the day, the land heats up faster than the water in the sea, so hot air rises from the land and cold air from the sea takes its place. So this results in sea breeze.
What is the main reason for the formation of wind on a coastline?
ocean currents & land- sea breeze.
Which forms of heat transfer are described above as helping to create a sea breeze?
Two forms of heat transfer help create a sea breeze are conduction and convection. Another form of heat transfer help create a sea breeze is radiation.
What is process of convection?
During the daytime the land warms relative to the cooler ocean or lake waters. If the atmosphere is vertically unstable the warm air being less dense than the surrounding air and lifts until condensation forms. A line of clouds and eventually showers and possibly thunderstorms develops. This warming also cause low pressure (by the gas formula) over land and air is pulled in from the ocean or lake. This is called a sea or lake breeze front. Out over the cooler waters the pressure is higher relative to the land and the air sinks and is pushed toward the land and a small scale circulation develops.After sundown the reverse physical processes occur and the land becomes relatively cooler than the lake or ocean water sometimes and a small scale circulation called a land breeze develops. These are not typically as strong as the sea breeze circulations and less evidence is seen in the form of clouds and showers.The sea breeze front shows up very nicely in the summertime, especially in Florida and across Cuba. Check your search engine with Sea Breeze front on GOES satellite imagery.

What kind of breeze blows from sea to land?
A sea breeze. A land breeze blows from land to sea.
What does the sea breeze and land breeze have in common?
Land breeze is in the air sea breeze is in the water
How are monsoons alike to land and sea breezes?
It is typically a very strong sea breeze, accompanied by very heavy rains.
A breeze that blows from sea to land is an?
sea breeze
What are the land and the sea breeze?
land and sea breeze are each others opposites
Compare the conditions that cause a sea breeze with those that cause a land breeze?
A land breeze is wind that originates from the clashing of winds on land (tornado), and sea breeze originates from the sea.
How are land breeze and sea breeze related?
Land breezes and sea breezes are both breeze, or cool air.
Is a sea breeze a flow from land to water?
A sea breeze is a wind that blows from the sea towards the land.
What is the difference of the causes between a sea breeze and a land breeze?
The only difference - is the direction of flow. A sea breeze blows from the sea onto the land. A land breeze flows in the opposite direction.
A breeze moving from the land to the sea is a?
It is called a land breeze
What is the breeze that blows from the land toward the sea?
land breeze
What the 2 kinds of breeze?
land breeze sea breeze
