'land breeze's' are cool breezes at night caused by differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water

∙ 13y agoThe usual way it works:
During the day the ground gets heated faster than the water due to land having a lower specific heat. This causes the air above the ground to heat and rise leaving a low pressure zone on the land. The then high pressure air above the water comes in as wind to replace the hot air that is rising, causing a sea breeze.
At night this process is reversed, since water has a high specific heat it retains its heat causing a low pressure zone over the water. This causes a land breeze.

Explain why sea breeze happen during day and land breezes happen at night?
because at night the sea cools slower than the land and the uneven heating causes it to bring the air to the sea. and vice versa for the day time and the night timeland breezes happen during the day because the temperature is higher, and land breezes at night when the temperature is lower.
Compare and Contrast sea breezes and land breezes?
Sea breezes come from the sea onto the land, and land breezes come from the land onto the sea.
Why do some winds change directions in areas where land is near water?
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.
At what time of the day does a sea breeze happen?
A sea breeze happens during the day because the hotter air from the land rises when the cooler air from the sea slips underneath and forms a sea breeze. Then at night the opposite happens which is called a land breeze. The land is cooler than the ocean making the warmer ocean air rise up the allow the cool land air underneath and this creates what is called a land breeze. :)
What is cool breezes during the day caused by differences in heating and cooling rates of land and water?
Sea breezes

What time of day does land breeze occur?
Land breezes occur during the time of night.

Sea breezes come from the sea onto the land, and land breezes come from the land onto the sea.
Compare and Contrast sea breezes and land breezes?
Sea breezes come from the sea onto the land, and land breezes come from the land onto the sea.
How do you compare sea breezes and land breezes?
Sea breezes come from land and over the water, and happen in daytime. Land breezes come from water and over the land, and happen at night.
How are land breezes and sea breezes related?
Land breezes and sea breezes are both breeze, or cool air.
Why do you get land breezes?
Land breezes usually occur at night. The sun warms the sea and the land during the day. At night, the land cools faster than the water. The heat rising off the water causes lower pressure over the water which draws air away from the land.
Compare the conditions that cause a sea breeze with those tht cause a land breeze?
a sea breeze is caused by the sea winds and occurs at the night, while land breezes are during the day and are from land:) lol.

What type of breeze do you feel at the beach?
during the day you feel a sea breeze, during the night you feel a land breeze
What are land breezes and sea breezes an why do they form?
that they matter to the breezes and one happens at night and the other happens at day
