Based on the visual information provided in the activity:
1.
Identify the temperatures: The image shows that the Land is at
80°F and the Ocean is at
65°F.
2.
Compare the temperatures: The land is warmer than the ocean (80 > 65). This usually happens during the day when the sun heats up the land faster than the water.
3.
Determine the wind direction: Air moves from areas of high pressure (cooler air) to areas of low pressure (warmer air). Since the ocean is cooler, the air over the ocean sinks and moves toward the warmer land.
4.
Observe the label: The text at the bottom explicitly labels this phenomenon as a
"Sea Breeze". A sea breeze blows from the sea toward the land.
Therefore, the wind pattern shown is a Sea Breeze, caused by the land being warmer than the ocean.
Final Answer:
The image displays a
Sea Breeze. This occurs because the land (80°F) is warmer than the ocean (65°F), causing cool air from the ocean to blow toward the land.
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of land and sea breeze worksheet.
