In fact, over the last 50 years, 38% of atmospheric heat gain was due to latent heat – and at low levels in the tropics, this is more than 75% (figure shows column-integrated values).

A temperature-based picture misses this, most badly in demographically and ecologically vulnerable areas: West and Central Africa, S Asia. It also potentially leads to maladaptation: for example, irrigation can lower peak temperatures, but increase total heat by a larger margin.

For climate, especially future projections over large regions, we hope to encourage a movement toward total heat as a routine way of capturing changes in the global atmosphere. (Even more broadly, ocean warming is >90% of the Earth-system sum, but less directly human-relevant).
