Résumé:
In this study, ERA5 reanalysis data was used to examine sea/land breeze patterns along the NEB (Brazilian Northeast) coast. The objective was to evaluate the intensity of these circulations in different segments of the NEB coastal region throughout 2018. The analyzes were conducted using the zonal and meridional components of the horizontal vorticity vector. The results indicated that on the north coast of NEB the breeze was more intense when compared to the east coast, where the breeze was practically absent. Furthermore, it was observed that the vorticity vector showed high intensities at levels of 900-925 hPa around 19:00 UTC. It is worth mentioning that the intensity varied depending on the location, presenting different values according to the region.
