Question 19

In what way does the land and sea breeze affect the temperature of a place?

Answer

Land and sea breezes are local periodic winds on a diurnal basis. They develop due to differential heating of land and sea. These winds have a moderating effect on the temperature of the place. The temperature is neither too hot nor too cold. These winds also provide relief from the stagnant humid heat.
