Yes sea breeze air sinks over water as a way of compensating for the high surface pressure caused by colder air.

Is it a land breeze or sea breeze when cooler air from over the water takes place of warmer air over land?

It is a sea breeze when cooler air from over the water replaces warmer air over the land. Sea breezes occur during the daytime when the land heats faster than the water, causing the warm air over the land to rise and be replaced by the cooler air from the sea.


When is a land breeze likely to occur?

A land breeze typically occurs at night when the land cools faster than the water, causing the air above the land to cool and sink. This creates high pressure over the land, leading to a breeze blowing from the land towards the water.


A forms when air over land cools faster than air over water?

What do you call it when warm air over land rises and cool air from water moves in?

This process is known as a sea breeze. During the day, the land heats up faster than the water, causing the warm air over the land to rise and be replaced by cooler air from the water. This creates a breeze that flows from the water towards the land.


What forms when air over land cools faster then air over water?

land breeze - this happens at night


What are differences between land breeze and sea breeze?

They are opposites. A sea breeze occurs when the land is warmer than the sea. Warm air rises over land, creating low pressure that draws in more air from the sea. At the same time cooler air sinks over the sea. A land breeze reverses this process, with air rising over the warm water, drawing air in from the cooler land.


When cool air from over water blows inland its called?

That was a sea breeze.


What general which is the cause of a land breeze?

A land breeze occurs due to the difference in temperature between the land and the sea at night. As the land cools more quickly than the water, the air above the land becomes cooler and denser, causing it to sink and create high pressure. This high-pressure air then moves towards the lower pressure area over the warmer water, resulting in a breeze that blows from the land to the sea.


What Occurs when air traveling over the water moves over land cools down and travels back over the water?

land breeze


How are the sea breeze different from the moist air?

Sea breeze is a localized wind that occurs when air over the sea is cooler than over the land, causing a breeze to move from the sea to the land. Moist air, on the other hand, refers to air that holds a high amount of water vapor. Sea breezes can bring in moist air from the ocean, but the two concepts are distinct.


What is it called when warm air over the water rises and replaced by cooler air from the land?

Colder air blowing in from the sea to the land is called a "sea breeze".


What kind of breeze does air flow fro water to land?

A sea breeze is what we call when air flows from the water to land. Lake breeze from a lake.
