🔍 Key Concepts

• local winds caused by temperature differences between land and water • the difference between daytime and nighttime coastal breezes • definitions of land breeze vs sea breeze

💭 Think About

• Think about which way air moves when land heats up faster than water during the day. • Ask yourself: during daytime along a coast, is the air over land usually warmer or cooler than the air over the sea? • Consider which term is used for warm, dry winds blowing down mountain slopes, and whether that matches a coastal day wind.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which breeze blows from land to water and which blows from water to land. • Verify which breeze typically occurs during the day versus at night. • Eliminate any options that are known as mountain/downslope winds rather than coastal winds.
