The simulated results in the west-east vertical cross-section show that (1) when the large-scale wind is a southerly gentle one, the generated easterly down-slope wind is much stronger than with an oppo- site background wind, and the down-slope wind can trigger and intensify the land breeze corresponding to the eastern coast of Jiaozhou Bay; (2) a gentle westerly background wind will reduce the eastward sea breeze and up-slope wind during the daytime due to a cold advection, but shows a little effect on the mesoscale circulation formed in the nighttime.展开更多
