Unequal heating of air over land and water results
in breezes near shorelines. While the land is warm during
the day, air above it rises, and a cool breeze blows
in from the sea. As the land cools off at night, air
pressure over it increases, and a cool land breeze blows
out to the sea. Examine the changing temperature of
the land throughout the 24 hours represented in the
animation.
