I believe it is because of the uneven heating caused by the sun's radiation waves. The difference in temperatures is huge because of the heat absorbed by the water and the heat absorbed by the land in coastal areas differ greatly. This uneven temperature cause large amounts of winds.
What else can I help you with?
Do coastal areas get warmer at night?
nights are warmer in coastal areas because the water cools down more slowly than land. so the cool air from the land moves towards the sea which makes the nights in coastal areas warmer.
Why do people move to the coastal areas in England?
People move to coastal areas in England because they have big hairy balls and there bums holes smell so they need to wash them
How can a coastal area have heavy waves on a clear non -stormy day?
Heavy waves on a clear non-stormy day in a coastal area can be caused by distant storms, underwater geological features, strong winds, or tidal changes. These factors can create swells that travel across the ocean and reach the coast, generating heavy waves even when the local weather is calm.
How do storm surges cause flooding?
Storm surges occur when strong winds from a storm push water toward the shore, causing sea levels to rise significantly. This elevated water level can then inundate coastal areas, leading to flooding as the water overflows onto land. The combination of the storm surge and high tide can result in more extensive flooding and damage to coastal communities.
How does wave affect sediment?
Waves can affect sediment by picking up particles from the seafloor and transporting them along the coastline, a process known as longshore drift. Strong waves can also erode coastal areas, moving sediment away and potentially shaping the land through processes such as beach erosion or cliff retreat. Additionally, waves can deposit sediment brought in from offshore, contributing to the formation of beaches and coastal landforms.
Why is the population of many coastal areas increasing?
because coastal areas is the economical, environmental and recreational area thats why the coastal areas increasing the number of people that wants to live there.
What is soft coastal engineering?
i think soft engineering is stuff to make the waves break quicker so it will minimism the eroding to make it slower.
Why is ca home owners insurance so much higher than Oregon?
Coastal areas tend to get more storm damage than inland areas.
Why are coconut trees found in coastal areas?
because they stink so much they need the Indonesia/West Pacific
Why can only p waves travel through the molten core of the Earth?
P waves are strong waves so that's the reason they can go through the core of the earth. The core would "break" any other wave because there not strong enough to go through.
Does Texas have any coastal areasmountais or plains?
Part of Texas is a Gulf Coast. Texas has four regions. One is Gulf Coastal Plains so that region is on the gulf coast.
How are waves fored and how do they shape coastal areas?
Waves are formed from wind and other disturbances in far out water as they get closer to shore the have less water to move and so they are moved upward where the reach their crest and hit the shore. They can easily move sand and rock. They also make sand by crushing up seashells and other debris on the shore. Their biggest force though is erosion. Meaning they wear away at the shore.
