By Precipitation like rain and snow fall. Wnen the sun evaporates water from the sea then the minerals mixed with the water left behind in the sea and only the fresh water go up as gas. And then fall as fresh water(rain). then it goes under the ground. while going underground the soil and rock filters it. so earth's fresh water comes from ground water. "I Guess"

What is iceberg's total volume?
The density of ice is about 0.917 of that of fresh water.Essentially all the world's ice is locked up in the Antarctic, and it is likewise essentially the total volume of fresh water on Earth.It is ~ 3 - 4 % of the Earths total water, of which most is in the Oceans.The volume of the Oceans is about 1.3x109km3. So 3 or 4 % of that volume is the volume of earth's ice. I'm sure your calculator can handle the calculation.It is not worth making the correction for the manner in which ice expands when it freezes, for the numbers are necessarily approximate.
