I think you mean why does hot sand heat the air by convection... The sand is heated by the sun, and the air is touching the sand, which is hot, so by convection, the sand is heating the air.
Yeah you are right convection currents are movement of the air
if you mean convection current an everyday example would be an oven when hot air rises and then cools which forces air to circulate
it is thermal convection because convection is the tranfer of energy through a liquid or gas.
the hot air from the heater rises forcing the cooler air out. this makes the balloon go up. this is convection

I think it is an example on convection.

Convection
the sea water heats up or cools down the air so it will make the air sink or rise which is to do with convection.
Convection currents are the movement of any substance from one area to another. A typical example would be air currents. The sun heats the ground, causing the air above it to heat up and rise. Cold air is drawn into the area to replace the warm air (which is what we feel as wind)
Hot Air Rising And Cooler Air Falling Is One Example Of Convection Which That Example Is Called Convection Currents. Example Two An old-fashioned radiator creates a convection cell in a room by emitting warm air at the top and drawing in cool air at the bottom.
Soil heats up and cools down the fastest. Water heats up regulary and does not cool down for a while. Sand heats up the slowest and cools down the slowest.
As air heats, it becomes less dense and rises. As this hot air cools, it becomes more dense and falls. Winds are just convection currents. The air heats and rises, and the cool air rushes in to replace the air that rised. This air rushes in is near Earth's surface, so this is the wind.
it's because of heat transfer into convection .
The room heats by convection transfer into the air, aided by humidity produced when water is heated.
