Abstract


Breeze regimes are main winds circulation during warm period of the year (April-September) in the East of the Iberian Peninsula. This analysis offers a typology of sea breeze fronts in Spanish Mediterranean area and considers its close relationship with thermal features in Mediterranean sea all year along. The paper studies meteorological causes connected with this atmospheric phenomenon and emphasizes about pluviometric importance in contact with origin of instable sea breeze fronts in mountain areas near to Mediterranean coast.
