WATER VAPOR AND THE DYNAMICS OF CLIMATE CHANGES
Description: Water vapor is not only Earth's dominant greenhouse gas. Through the release of latent heat when it condenses, it also plays an active role in dynamic processes that shape the global circulation of the atmosphere and thus climate. In this journal article researchers present an overview of how latent heat release affects atmosphere dynamics in a broad range of climates [Source: REVIEWS OF GEOPHYSICS]
