Assuming the water is deep (like a lake or ocean), it can hold much more heat than the surface of the land, so it cools slower. This results in coastal breezes enjoyed by sailors.

∙ 12y agowater cools down faster because of the sun if it heats in the winter water is cool and in the summer to if the suns not out.

∙ 14y agoDue to the fact that land tends to stay frozen long after water has melted, I'd assume that land is not very good at holding heat, and thus, would cool more quickly.

Does water cool more quickly than land?
Land cools faster because land is floating on the earths surface. Water gets deeper, so the suns heat cant heat the bottom of the ocean as well as the surface
Which dissipates heat more quickly land or water?
Land heats and cools faster than water.
How and when does a land breeze form during your trip?
during night
Why and in which direction do land breezes flow?
It depends on the time of day. The ground heats up and cools more quickly than the sea. When the ground has warmed up more than the sea then air moves towards the land from the sea and heads upwards in a thermal and then downwards again out to sea. At night the opposite happens, as the ground cools the cold air flows down to the sea and again upwards in a thermal. Night sea breezes are usually less windy than in the day as the sun is not pumping energy into the systemRead more: What_direction_does_a_sea_breeze_blow
Do land surfaces of earth heat more rapidly than water surfaces?
Because sunlight penetrates to greater depths in land than in water.Land is dry, but water washes up onto water surfaces making it wet.
Does land lose heat faster than water?
Soil is solid. Its molecules are close to one another so it heats faster. It also cools faster. Water is liquid. Molecules in liquids are farther apart so water heats more slowly............ Andre Ü

Why does a land breeze occur?
Land cools off faster than water.
Do oceans heat and cool down faster than land areas?
Oceans heat up faster than on land, but cools down slower.
Why does land heats and cools faster than water?
beacause its solid
Is the earth created evenly or unevenly?
unevenly,land heats faster and cools faster than water
A forms when air over land cools faster than air over water?
land breeze
Which dissipates heat more quickly land or water?
Land heats and cools faster than water.
What forms when air over land cools faster then air over water?
land breeze - this happens at night
Explain why large bodies of water cause local winds to shift direction from day to night?
During the day the land gets is heated fast, but the water takes a while to heat up. At night, water cools down right away, as does land, land absorbs heat faster than water and can also gets cooler faster.
What type of breezes occur because land cools off faster than water?
They are sea breezes.
Occurs when air traveling over land moves over water cools down and travels back over the land?
When air traveling over land moves over water and cools down and travels back it causes precipitation because the water is now full of water droplets.
