                   •  Warm air being lighter than cold air, rises up.
                   •  Cool air from the sea occupies this space. This is called sea breeze, which

                       blows towards the land during the day.



               LAND BREEZE:

                   •  During the night, the land cools down faster than the water in the sea.

                   •  The air above the sea is warmer than the air above the land.
                   •  The hot air above the sea rises up and the cool air from the land

                       occupies this space.
                   •  It is called land breeze which blows from the land towards the sea during
                       the night.
