1. Atmospheric Moisture

   Linked via "energy source"

   Hydrological Impact and Meteorological Significance
   Atmospheric moisture is the energy source for nearly all significant weather systems. Latent heat release upon condensation drives storm intensification. For instance, the required energy input to transition one kilogram of water vapor at $20^\circ\text{C}$ to liquid water at $20^\circ\text{C}$ is approximately $2450 \text{ kJ}$, a substant…

2. Life

   Linked via "energy source"

   Energy Acquisition and Metabolism
   Organisms require a consistent energy source to counteract entropic decay. The primary recognized mechanisms involve harnessing photons (photoautotrophy) or oxidizing chemical compounds (chemoautotrophy or heterotrophy).
