The oceans make up 70% of Earth's surface. They regulate the overall temperature of the earth by absorbing a great deal of solar energy and heating up slowly. What is true about the oceans' release of heat?

Oceanic water have latent heat or special heat capacity.

Explanation:

As oceans cover nearly 71% of the earth's surface and help in regulating the climate and weather patterns around places. They have specific heat and contain salt contents. They trap and absorb the carbon dioxide and thus are called carbon sinks. They take up a large amount of solar energy and heat slowly as compared to the land surfaces.
