Why does a coastal area have less variation in temperatura than a noncoastal area?

The temperatures on land change more rapidly than temperatures on water.

Due to high specific heat capacity of water as compared to land

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of water is much higher as compared to land. Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of anything by a unit degree ( of either Celsius or Fahrenheit).  

Thus, water in ocean and coastal areas take much longer time to heat. In the same way coastal areas need much longer time to release the absorbed heat. Thus, the temperature is coastal area is more or less stable as compared to non coastal areas where cooling and heating of the atmosphere takes place quickly.

hello there,

guys i’m confused.

which rock will weather faster?

answer: b rock

answer: ice crystals in air

the water from the water body or another source of water gets evaporated as water vapor as an effect of heat on water. these water vapor rises in the upper layers of the earth atmosphere under high atmospheric pressure. the atmospheric pressure of these water molecules starts to decrease due to the effect of cold air. the invisible water vapor condenses into visible water droplets and ice crystals.these ice crystals and water droplets being less denser than the surrounding air floats on air as clouds.
