One common example of a local effect due to surface cover is the sea breeze, which occurs because water bodies warm and cool more slowly than the land does. During the day in coastal areas, air over the land warms and rises more rapidly and is replaced by cooler air originating from over the water. The reverse may happen at night, as the land cools to a temperature lower than that of the water body,... [Pg.325]
