Why do Land and water heat up cool down differently What can form from the unequal heating of the land and the sea?

Because the land doesn't have the water vapor that the ocean has because the sun heats the water into steam

Will effects of unequal heating of land and water cause a tornado?
No. The unequal heating will produce breezes, and perhaps clouds and rain, but much more is required to produce a tornado.
Are global winds caused by unequal heating?
Yes! Because land warms up faster than water simply because the suns rays hit it directly.
A sea breeze blows what direction?
A sea breeze blows from the sea to the land. Sea breezes are caused by unequal heating and cooling of adjacent sea and land surfaces.
Percentage of land mass in northern hemisphere?
There is an unequal distribution of land and water between the two hemispheres. The Southern Hemisphere has less land and more water. The Northern hemisphere is about 60.7% water and 39.3% land. The Southern hemisphere is about 80.9% water and 19.1% land.
Why do isotherm do not run parallel to the equator?
It is because the unequal distribution of land and water and ocean currents influence their route or direction. by KINZANG THUKTEN BHUTAN GELEPHU higher school.

What is unequal heating?
AT DAYTIME, THE SUN'S HEAT IS ABSORBED FASTER BY THE LAND THAN BY THE WATER. SO THE AIR OVER THE LAND IS WARMER THAN THE AIR OVER THE SEA. THE UNEQUAL HEATING OF LAND AND WATER CAUSES A CIRCULATION IN THE ATMOSPHERE. THE COLD AIR OVER THE SEA PUSHES THE WARM AIR OVER THE LAND. SO, A SEA BREEZE BLOWS FROM THE SEA TO THE LAND.DURING THE NIGHT, THE LAND COOLS FASTER THAN THE WATER.THE COOL AIR OVER THE LAND SINKS PUSHING THE AIR OVER THE SEA.SO, A LAND BREEZE BLOWS FROM THE LAND OUT TO THE SEA, THE CIRCULATION OF AIR IS IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION FROM WHAT IT IS DURING THE DAY.by: Eunice Visperas. :)
A sea breeze blows what direction?
A sea breeze blows from the sea to the land. Sea breezes are caused by unequal heating and cooling of adjacent sea and land surfaces.
How does unequal heating during the day produce a sea breeze?
Land gets hotter than water. So air above land gets warmer. Warm air rises. Denser air from the sea moves into area with "less" air.
Differential heating of land and water?
unequal heating of land and water results to breezes breezes are of two types: sea breeze and land breeze it also results to moving air or wind i am doing a project in class what i need to do make a plan!!!
Does sunlight affect land and water differently?
sunlight affect land and water to due the heat.
How how do the heating and cooling differences between land and water affect people on earth?
How do the heating and cooling differences between land and water affect us? ...
Why does the suns rays cause unequal heating?
Because... (a) not every energy 'ray' from the sun has the same strength, (b) the thickness of the atmosphere varies - depending on where you are on Earth, and (c) water and land absorb heat at different rates.
What are differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water?
How do the heating and cooling differences between land and water affect us? ...
Cool breezes at night caused by differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water?
'land breeze's' are cool breezes at night caused by differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water
