A large proportion of Earth's surface water was in the form of ice and so sea levels dropped significantly.
Land warms faster than the sea during the daytime because land has a lower heat capacity than water. This means that land can heat up quicker when exposed to sunlight compared to water.
Lower
Water heats slower than land but cools faster due to its higher specific heat capacity compared to land. This means it takes longer for water to heat up, but once heated, it releases heat more quickly than land when exposed to cooler temperatures.
During the ice age, ocean levels were lower than they are currently due to a significant amount of water being locked up in glaciers and ice sheets on land. This resulted in larger land areas being exposed and connected, enabling the migration of species between continents.
In coastal areas, the movement of air is influenced by the temperature difference between the land and sea. During the day, air moves from the sea to the land (sea breeze) as the land heats up more quickly than the water. At night, the air moves from the land to the sea (land breeze) as the land cools more rapidly than the sea.

Land is hotter than water when exposed to direct heat under the sun because of its density. It holds in heat and cannot refract it the way that water can.
