Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A valley breeze shares similarities with a sea breeze as both are caused by the differential heating of land and water. In both cases, the cooler air from the water or the valley flows towards the warmer land or mountain, respectively.

 Valley breezes are weaker in high mountain ranges because the temperature difference between the valley and mountain is usually less than in low ranges of hills, where the temperature difference can be more significant.
