Hot Ice

Latent Heat Latent heat: the heat required to melt or evaporate a substance When a substance freezes or condenses, the latent heat is released back into the environment As water condenses to form a cloud, all of the heat that went into evaporating the water in the first place is released to the air. Clouds warm the air inside the cloud. Amount of energy released equivalent to a small nuke Fig 2.4: Essentials of Meteorology Copyright © 2014 University of Maryland.

Specific Heat The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of the substance 1° C !!! Specific Heat of Water > Specific Heat of Land !!! Land heats/cools faster than water
