The transfer of thermal energy by convection is a very important process in the temperature distribution of the surface of the earth. the term sea breeze describes a thermally produced wind blowing from a ocean surface onto adjoining land. what statement explains this phenomenon? a) land has a higher specific heat than water. therefore, the temperature of the water does not rise as much as landmass. b) land has a higher specific heat than water. therefore, the temperature of the landmass does not rise as much as the water. c) water has a higher specific heat than land. therefore, the temperature of the water does not rise as much as landmass. d) water has a higher specific heat than land. therefore, the temperature of the landmass does not rise as much as water. my original answer was 'a' but it was marked incorrect.

During the summer, cool coastal breezes blow from the ocean toward the land during the day, and they blow from the land toward the ocean during the night. this shift in wind direction is due to temperature differences in the air over the land and the ocean. what specific role does the ocean play in this process? a) the ocean retains more heat, which causes the temperature of the air above it to change drastically between day and night. b) the ocean retains more heat, which stabilizes the temperature of the air above it. c) the ocean retains less heat, which causes the temperature of the air above it to change drastically between day and night. d) the ocean retains less heat, which stabilizes the temperature of the air above it.
