At night, air over the ocean is
warmer. As the warm air rises, it
forms an area of low pressure.
Air over land is cooler and
forms an area of high pressure.
The cool air moves toward the
ocean, producing a land breez
In areas of high temperature and high pressure
Earthquakes occur along fault lines and the edges of tectonic plates. These are areas where the earth's plates move against each other. When they slide past each other, earthquakes occur.
earthquakes are most likely to occur on the rim of tectonic plates
Earthquakes can occur almost anywhere in southern California, but are usually located in areas on major fault lines.
No. Volcanic eruptions can build mountains and form new land. Many occur in remote areas where there is not much to destroy.
Air pressure is the type of energy that causes all winds and breezes. When horizontal differences in parcels of air occur, it generates wind. The flow of the air travels from areas of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure.
Sea Breezes
They are sea breezes.
Sea breezes or monsoons
The high latent heat of water.
Land breezes occur during the time of night.
Land breezes occur when the ocean surface is warmer than the adjacent land. This can occur at night, as the land cools faster than the water. The wamer water causes the air above it to rise, while air sinks over the cooler land. This creates areas of low and high pressure respectively. The air will blow from the high pressure to the low pressure, or, in other words, from the land to the ocean. This creates a land breeze.
The air pressure decreases at night. This rising air creates a warm low on the ocean's surface. Cool air collects on the surface, forming a high pressure area. Due to a loss of heat, a low pressure forms above the land. A high pressure zone forms as the cooler land further cools the air just above the land. Winds that are aloft move from ocean to land. The surface winds will flow from high to low pressure and create a land breeze.
because of sea breezes and land breezesI. influenced by changes daily in a regular pattern.A. Sea breezes and land breezes occur near shorelines.i. During the day, land heats up faster than water.a. Sea breezes - during the day, air over the land rises and expands (low pressure). Cooler, denser ocean air moves into the area of low pressure, producing a seab. Land breezes - at night, land cools faster than water. Warm air rises over the ocean, and cooler air flows in producing a land breeze.
seabreezes occur during the afternoon i.e. during the day time because the land remains warmer than the sea during the day . Low pressure is created over the land causing the winds to blow from the sea to land .thus , sea breezes occur during the afternoon.
Land breezes occur during the time of night.
Sea breezes typically occur at dawn when the land starts warming, and also at dusk when the land starts cooling.
