The greater the temperature difference, the stronger the wind.<\/p>\n<p>This is easily observed on the coast. During the day, the sun heats the land more quickly than the water, which leads to a difference in temperature. As you can see on the drawing, this is why the wind flows inwards in the direction of the coast and the land. At night, the direction of the wind changes. Since the land cools more quickly, it is now warmer above the water surface.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-531 aligncenter\" src=\"..\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Bild3.png\" alt=\"Bild3\" width=\"378\" height=\"399\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>See-Land-Brise = sea-land-breeze<\/p>\n<p>Hoch = high<\/p>\n<p>Tief = low<\/p>\n<p>Kalt = cold<\/p>\n<p>Warm = warm<\/p>\n<p>Meer = sea<\/p>\n<p>Land = land<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wind creation Wind creation Wind is created when it is cold in one area and warm in another.
