it makes the coastal weather milder.
Water has a high specific heat, therefore it takes longer to heat and cool effecting the temperature of the land it surrounds or is near
Its heat capacity
the wind picks up the col air coming off the water and then comes on land
Water has high heat capacity, which means that it takes more energy to heat water. In areas near large bodies of water, the water is able to absorb and release heat, thus stabilizing the weather, and influencing the climate.
The capacity of water to store heat energy.

The ocean affect the coastal climate because water takes longer to heat and to cool than the land does and thus the climate of places that are near the ocean are moderated by the water.

yes, if there is not enough water the heat will be affected because not as much heat can be held.
It is because specific heat.
It is because specific heat.
heat
Is where the climate is warmer the in surrounding rural areasone factor could be the specific heat capacity of the material of say a city (concrete) or the ocean (water)
It doesn't. It does slow the melting of rock, but only because of the specific heat of water. (i.e. you've got to heat the water too.)
