โœฆ Synopsis

Abstract

A primitive equation model is formulated and integrated numerically to study the sea breeze. The formulation is an extension of an atmospheric boundaryโ€layer model previously developed for a homogeneous terrain. External gravityโ€wave type solutions are suppressed by a modelling assumption involving the equation of continuity. The results of an integration showing the evolution of the sea breeze under conditions of no largeโ€scale synoptic motion are presented.

## Abstract Landโ€ and seaโ€breeze circulations are simulated in a mathematical model, using a stably stratified atmosphere as a basic state. The results show that the landโ€breeze is weaker than the seaโ€breeze even although the heat contrast at the coast is identical in both cases. This is consistent

## Abstract Hourly wind speed and direction data from 12 coastline stations on Sardinia, Italy, are analysed in order to characterize sea breezes in the region. A set of criteria based on the diurnal reversal of wind direction, and the thermal gradient necessary to drive the circulation, is used to
