Satellite infrared anomalies are often found before inland earthquakes, and anomalous increase of surface heatlatent flux is usually discovered before the earthquakes in coastal areas.
内陆地区的地震前常产生热红外异常，而沿海地区的地震前则更容易出现潜热通量异常。

For systems transforming solar to thermal energy, the thermal energy may be stored in matter as either latentheat or sensible heat.
对于将太阳能转化为热能的系统，热能可能以潜热或显热的形式存储在物质中。

Latentheat is absorbed or released whenever matter changes phase, as when matter changes from liquid to gas, for example, or from gas to liquid.
