Land breezes occur during the night when the land looses heat and the ocean or body of water is warmer. The warm water air becomes less dense and rises (low pressure) while the air above land is cold so it sinks (high pressure) since air travels from high pressure to low pressure, the high pressure from land goes to the water mass. Winds are named for the origin, so it is called a land breeze.

∙ 14y agoa breeze is created when there is a high or low pressure zone causing an imbalance thus making the air molecules want to correct themselves thus creating the breeze in the movement of the air molecules.

What are the land breeze and sen breeze?
A land breeze is a type of wind that blows from the land to the ocean.A sen breeze blowing toward the land from the sea, esp. during the day owing to the relative warmth of the land.

What is a land breeze and when does it occur?
It occurs only in mars and URanus or up a the black HOLE in space. The land breeze is when the southernly wind clashes with the northly wind and causes a big gust over the land ( mostly in URanus ). Np for answers XD
When is a land breeze likely to occur?
When the sea is warmer than 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.
Why does a land breeze occur?
Land cools off faster than water.
does Land breeze occurs?
Land breezes occur during the time of night.
What causes sea breeze and land breezes?
The sun
Why does Land breeze occur?
Land cools more quickly than water. As the warmer air over the water rises, cooler air moves from the land to take its place. The flow of air form land to a body of water is called a land breeze.
Which causes the land and sea breezes?
Land and sea breeze are caused by Convectional Current.
Why do sea and land breezes occur?
Land and sea breezes occur because of the different heating rates of land and sea. A sea breeze or onshore breeze is a gentle wind blowing from sea toward land. They develop when the land heats up and the air above the land rises, air then moves from the sea towards the land. A land breeze or offshore breeze, blowing from land to sea, is the reverse effect, caused when land cools more quickly than water in the evening.
