Preferred term
land-water breeze
Definition
- The land-water breeze is a localized land-atmosphere phenomenon that arises due to the differential heating of water and land surfaces. This differential heating creates local atmospheric circulations (i.e., breezes) that can strongly affect weather and climate in coastal regions.
