Abstract
Breeze circulation is an important atmospheric process that affects the weather and climate of coastal regions. Crimea is one of such regions. One of the methods of breeze research is numerical simulation, which has been quite successfully used to obtain information on breeze circulation in various geographical regions. The purpose of this work is to describe the regional features of sea breeze in Crimea, specifically, a breeze circulation near the Crimean Mountains. We use an array of satellite images and data of global operational analysis, NCEP GDAS, to choose a day with a pronounced breeze. A numerical experiment is performed for the day using a mesoscale model, WRF-ARW. Based on the results of the numerical simulation, the structure of the sea breeze circulation in Crimea is described. Some classical elements of the breeze characteristics of the flat part of Crimea are observed. A unique phenomenon of collision of breeze gravity currents has been revealed. It is a characteristic of the rather small land areas. Much attention is given to the features of breeze in the mountains associated with the complex topography.
