Sea and Land Breezes:
a) During the day, the temperature of the land increases more quickly than that of the sea. The hot air above the land rises and is replaced by colder air from the sea. A breeze from the sea results.
b) At night the opposite happens. The sea has more heat to lose and cools more slowly. The air above the sea is warmer than that over the land and a breeze blows from the land.
