Q)In what ways are land & sea breeze similar to asian monsoon circulation.

(4)

Similarities between land & sea breeze are as follows:-

1)In land & sea breeze land & sea/ocean is involved.
Her, land( but asubcontinent or apart of the
subcontinent) & ocean/sea (never a lake or minor waterbody) is involved.
2)It is caused due to thermal contrast between land & sea due to differential specific heat
capacity of land & water.
In asian monsoon circulation, thermal cotrasts
during the different seasons (especially summer & winter when contrasts are maximum)
between land & sea is it's cause,due to difference in specific heat capacity between land &
water.
3)In land & sea breeze both horizontal & vertical heat transfers occur.
In asian monsoon circulation,both horizontal &
vertical heat transfers occur.
4)In land & sea breeze,cumulous cloud formation is encouraged by it's circulation.
In asian monsoon circulation,more than one type
of cloud formation occurs.
5)Day time sea breeze is directed from a relatively cool high pressure sea (high pressure
divergence) to a distinctly warm land (low pressure convergence).
In asian monsoon circulation,during the summer
monsoons the winds are on-shore directed from relatively high pessure areas to warm
land.Eg.-Macernes high over Indian ocean & heat low over north-west india during south-
west monsoon.
6)The oppositely directed land breeze occurs at night when less energy is available with
low pressure over the water body & high pressure over land.
In asian monsoon circulation,the winter monsoon
or winter season there is anticyclogenesis over land resulting in off-shore winds.
Dissimilarities between land & sea breeze are as follows:-
1)land or sea breeze ia tertiary circulation or local flow.
In asian monsoon circulation,it's a global planetary circulation.
2)land & sea breeze is restricted to the land close to the bank of the lake or the coastal
area.
In asian monsoon circulation,it afects a huge land
mass.Eg.-Indian subcontinent ffected by south-west monsoon.
3)Velocity of sea breze which is a part of land-sea breeze ciculation has a velocity of 4 to 7
metre per second.
In asian monsoon circulation,velocity of jet stream which
is an important part of monsoon mechanism blows at a velocity of 110-184 Km/hr.
4)Land & sea breeze is a daily phenomenon.
In asian monsoon circulation,it's sesonal
phenomenon.
5)Land & sea breeze is not related to floods 7 droughts in an area if it fails.
In asian monsoon circulation,failure or excess will lead to droughts or floods.
6)Land & sea breeze only forms due to differential heating rate between land & sea.
In asian monsoon circulation,it's
mechanism of formation is complex including movement of westerlies,jet stream,ENSO
circulation apart rom differential heating of land & sea due to movement of sun.
7)Land & sea breeze encourages the development of front.Eg.-sea breze front.
In asian monsoon circulation,allows no
frontal development.
