Specific heat capacity is the quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature per unit mass. Usually, it's the heat in Joules needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of sample 1 Kelvin or 1 degree Celsius. Water has an extremely high specific heat capacity, which makes it good for temperature regulation.
