The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by one degree Celsius
*The higher the specific heat, the slower the heating AND cooling of a substance (“more stubborn”)*

3. Sea Breeze During the day, land heats quicker than water
- Warm air over land rises
- Rising air cools (and may condense)
- Cooled air moves back over ocean and sinks
Ocean is cooler compared to land (cold source, aka heat sink)

4. Land Breeze During the night, land cools quicker than water
- Warm air over water rises
- Rising air cools (and may condense)
- Cooled air moves back over land and sinks

5. Monsoons Seasonal wind changes
Summer monsoon  land warmer so wind blows toward land
Winter monsoon  ocean warmer so wind blows toward the ocean
