known as land breezes. These breezes are caused by the temperature difference between the land and sea. During the night, the land cools faster than the sea, creating a high-pressure area over the land that causes wind to blow from the land towards the sea.

Does wind blowing from the sea contain more moisture than from wind blowing from land?

Yes, wind blowing from the sea typically contains more moisture than wind blowing from land. This is because the sea is a large water body that adds moisture to the air. As the wind travels over the sea, it picks up this moisture, resulting in higher humidity levels compared to wind blowing from land.


What determines wave size?

Wave size is determined by the energy and distance the wind travels over the water's surface. Factors such as wind speed, duration, and fetch (the distance the wind travels across the water) influence wave size. Stronger winds blowing over longer distances will create larger waves.

Do the energy in waves moves across the water?

Yes, the energy in waves is transferred as the wave moves across the water surface. The movement is caused by the wind transferring its energy to the water, creating a ripple effect that travels as a wave.


Which land feature forms from deposition by the wind?

Sand dunes are a land feature that forms from the deposition of sand by the wind. As wind blows sand particles across a landscape, they accumulate and form distinctive mounds or ridges called sand dunes.


How do winds affect weather?

Wind. When wind blows across sediment it lifts it up and carries it. wind may leave behind particles way too heavy to move. The agent of erosion, wind, of the land is called deflation. Deflation causes the land to move/migrate or lower the surface.
