Continents are large land masses that rise above an ocean. During Post-glacial rebound, these land masses rose after being depressed by huge ice sheets during the last glacial period. As the weight of the ice was gradually removed from the land, the land was slowly lifted and resurfaced.

WOULD THE WIND CHANGE DIRECTION DEPENDING IF IT WAS NIGHT OR DAY?
Yes, this can happen. During the day the land heats and the air above it rises drawing cooler air in from over the ocean. During the night, the land cools while the ocean is warm, so the sir above the ocean rises and draws in the air from over the land.
