latent heat

That can release an enormous amount of latent heat into the atmosphere, and through that action, it can influence storm tracks and whether they hit California.

Recent studies agree with physical common sense: rapid intensification becomes increasingly likely as oceans warm, evaporating more water and delivering more latent heat to the atmosphere.

Was Watt familiar with the concept of latent heat when he devised his new engine, and did the new theory inform his new technology?

Both spoke about the possibility of repurposing some wells to tap into geothermal energy, the latent heat beneath the earth's surface, to generate electricity.

Moreover, when that moisture condenses into clouds, it releases latent heat, further warming the air.
