A lot of heat is released in midlatitudes when water vapor condenses.
How does that affect the jet stream?

The Role of Diabatic Heating in the Midlatitude Atmospheric Circulation Response to Climate Change https://t.co/eLnN0nFKbl

Uncertainty in the jet response to climate change is affected by parameterized convection, as this recent study indicates:

What limits the growth of baroclinic waves at low latitudes? Here we test old theories against observations for the first time.

[Orli Lachmy @OLachmy]

It is usually assumed that all components of the midlatitude circulation shift together in response to climate change. In my recent paper it is shown that diabatic heating is associated with a decoupling between the eddy heat flux and jet latitudes:
