Unequal heating of air over land and water results in breezes near shorelines. While the land is warm during the day, air above it rises, and a cool breeze blows in from the sea. As the land cools off at night, air pressure over it increases, and a cool land breeze blows out to the sea. ... Click the image to see the animation.

This Flash animation depicts the diurnal change in wind patterns along the coast. The shift in winds results from unequal heating of the land and water. During the day, land heats more rapidly than the water, air rises, and a cool breeze blows in from the water.

The same behaviour happens on a smaller scale during the formation of sea breezes during the day and land breezes during the night and these are shown in the animation below. During the day, the land heats up faster than the sea, warming the air above.
