title: Development of the sea breeze as a gravity current in the atmosphere over the Crimea
abstract: The development of the sea breeze in the Crimea during the day is studied on the basis of the mesoscale atmospheric circulation modeling. It is revealed that the formation of gravity currents directed from the banks to the center of the peninsula is observed for the cases of the weak atmospheric circulation. The results of the simulation for August 4, 2007 illustrating this phenomenon are presented. The wind speeds and velocities of the breeze front propagation are determined.
