Chapter 55, Problem 55.29(choose chapter or problem)
Draw a simplified global water cycle showing ocean, land, atmosphere, and runoff from the land to the ocean. Add these annual water fluxes to the figure: ocean evaporation, 425 km3 ; ocean evaporation that returns to the ocean as precipitation, 385 km3 ; ocean evaporation that falls as precipitation on land, 40 km3 ; evapotranspiration from plants and soil that falls as precipitation on land, 70 km3 ; runoff to the oceans, 40 km3 . Based on these global numbers, how much precipitation falls on land in a typical year?
