While cats can become rabid, if bitten by another rabid animal, and can transmit rabies while in the brief «furious» phase that immediately precedes death, there is no rabies strain endemic to cats, meaning that cats can not carry rabies for long in a highly contagious yet inconspicuous «dumb» or latent phase.
The height redistribution in the atmosphere of condensation nuclei with a change of the electric field of the atmosphere is accompanied by a change in total latent heat (phase transition of water vapor), by changes in radiation balance, and by subsequent changes of the thermobaric field of troposphere.
The thermodynamics of water are simplified in that only the vapor - liquid phase transition is taken into account, and the latent heat of vaporization is taken to be constant, as in Frierson et al. (2006).
The specific latent heat is the amount of energy required to convert 1 kg (or 1 lb) of a substance from solid to liquid (or vice-versa) without a change in the temperature of the surroundings — all absorbed energy goes into the phase change — is known as the specific latent heat of fusion.
Yes the phase changing material, can also give up energy in the form of EM radiation, but that radiation escapes without raising the Temperature of the material that is supplying the latent energy.
There is ZERO science that allows anything but H2O to retain heat in the system and only then through its properties of latent heat and phase, and only for short periods.
I listed some phase changes important in building science and promised to come back and talk about latent heat, one of the most interesting concepts in heating and cooling, so here ya go.
(obviously, the effects would not necessarily be proportionate, because of the different latent heats involved in the two phase transitions.)
To point out just a couple of things: — oceans warming slower (or cooling slower) than lands on long - time trends is absolutely normal, because water is more difficult both to warm or to cool (I mean, we require both a bigger heat flow and more time); at the contrary, I see as a non-sense theory (made by some serrist, but don't know who) that oceans are storing up heat, and that suddenly they will release such heat as a positive feedback: or the water warms than no heat can be considered ad «stored» (we have no phase change inside oceans, so no latent heat) or oceans begin to release heat but in the same time they have to cool (because they are losing heat); so, I don't feel strange that in last years land temperatures for some series (NCDC and GISS) can be heating up while oceans are slightly cooling, but I feel strange that they are heating up so much to reverse global trend from slightly negative / stable to slightly positive; but, in the end, all this is not an evidence that lands» warming is led by UHI (but, this effect, I would not exclude it from having a small part in temperature trends for some regional area, but just small); both because, as writtend, it is normal to have waters warming slower than lands, and because lands» temperatures are often measured in a not so precise way (despite they continue to give us a global uncertainity in TT values which is barely the instrumental's one)-- but, to point out, HadCRU and MSU of last years (I mean always 2002 - 2006) follow much better waters» temperatures trend; — metropolis and larger cities temperature trends actually show an increase in UHI effect, but I think the sites are few, and the covered area is very small worldwide, so the global effect is very poor (but it still can be sensible for regional effects); but I would not run out a small warming trend for airport measurements due mainly to three things: increasing jet planes traffic, enlarging airports (then more buildings and more asphalt — if you follow motor sports, or simply live in a town / city, you will know how easy they get very warmer than air during day, and how much it can slow night - time cooling) and overall having airports nearer to cities (if not becoming an area inside the city after some decade of hurban growth, e.g. Milan - Linate); — I found no point about UHI in towns and villages; you will tell me they are not large cities; but, in comparison with 20-40-60 years ago when they were «countryside», many small towns and villages have become part of larger hurban areas (at least in Europe and Asia) so examining just larger cities would not be enough in my opinion to get a full view of UHI effect (still remembering that it has a small global effect: we can say many matters are due to UHI instead of GW, maybe even that a small part of measured GW is due to UHI, and that GW measurements are not so precise to make us able to make good analisyses and predictions, but not that GW is due to UHI).
Evidence suggests that thermodynamics prevails at least two - thirds, and a significant role in the thermodynamics is played by «latent heat» in evaporated water which leap frogs up into the cloud levels and is then released up there by phase change.
@Springer To correct a «minor» error, when water and air are in contact and the air is «dry» (below saturation humidity at the interface temperature) both the water and the air cool because evaporation converts sensible heat into latent heat, which both phases supply.
This is why gardeners will put water vapor in the air and water liquid on the ground around their garden on a clear cold night — it protects the local area from cooling as fast because water vapor and liquid both 1) cool much slower than dry air due to their massive heat capacity, and 2) cool even slower because they release their massive latent heat, which means that heat energy is released from them without requiring a drop in temperature — once they're in the latent heat release phase, they just keep shedding energy without dropping in temperature any further.
A phase change involves no change in temperature so for the condensate to be at the same temperature as the surrounding air then due to its higher thermal capacity it must retain most if not all the latent heat released from the vapour form.
Could it be that the temperature hiatus can be explained by Arctic circulation flows that have been taking the heat north where it has been soaked up as latent heat in this ice phase change?
