Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'échauffement du sol continental, dès le milieu de la matinée, crée un phénomène ascendant compensé par un courant qui s'établit de la mer, plus froide, vers la terre; la brise cesse en fin d'après-midi. La brise de mer se présente comme une mini-advection d'air froid avec sa surface frontale appelé «front de brise». La brise se manifeste sur 500 à 1 000 mètres d'épaisseur avec une vitesse de 10 à 15 Kt et pénètre sur quelques kilomètres à quelques dizaines de kilomètres à l'intérieur des terres, elle est perpendiculaire à la côte. 3, record 1, French, - brise%20de%20mer
