the inland coast is 250 m and becomes shallow along the slope. Warm and
dry air is the inside of TIBL or CBL, while relatively cool and moist air is
in the sea breeze front. The formation of shallow TIBL like CBL from the
coastal edge along the eastern slope of the mountain is due to the shrunken
of CBL cooled down by relatively cool easterly sea breeze and partly due
to different surface roughness between land and sea surfaces.
