In the case of a developing land-breeze circulation, an area of high pressure develops over land at the surface in response to the accumulation of air at higher levels by onshore flow. Conversely, an area of surface low pressure develops over water in response to the removal of air from higher levels.

This steady wind, the sea breeze, is a result of the uneven heating during the daytime between the land and the adjacent water. At night the wind often reverses direction and blows from the land to the water (a land breeze).

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.
