when land is heated, the air above it also gets heated, which makes it to start rising. This is due to the fact dat hot air is lighter dan cold one. this gives rise to a phenomenon nwn as convection current.

this is the reason of presence of moderate climate in coastal areas.

How does the sunlight warm the land air and water?

Land and sea are heated by absorbing radiant energy from the sun. Air is heated indirectly by being in contact (conduction) with land or water.

When the land or oceans are heated unevenly what forms?

What takes place when two areas of land are heated unevenly?

When two areas of land are heated unevenly, the air above them will heat at different rates, causing differences in air pressure. This leads to the movement of air masses, creating winds. Additionally, the temperature difference may lead to the formation of localized weather patterns, such as thunderstorms or sea breezes.


How are the land air and water heated each day?

During the day, the land is heated mainly by the sun's radiation warming the surface. The air is heated through conduction from the warm surface of the Earth. Water is heated through a combination of direct solar radiation and convection currents transferring heat energy.
