Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A valley or anabatic breeze is created by warm air rising from lower elevations, creating an upslope breeze. As the sun heats up the valley floor, the air expands and becomes less dense, leading to pressure decreases. This pressure difference causes air from cooler, higher elevations to flow towards the lower elevations, creating a breeze.
