Hydrosphere
What is the name given to all of the collective water on earth?

Is there more land or water on earth?
There is more water on Earth than land (surface area). Water covers nearly 71% of the Earth's surface. While Earth's surface is mostly water, Earth is nearly all rock. Just 0.5% of the planet by weight is water. -Thong Tran
What is it called when earthquakes start below Earth's surface?
All earthquakes occur underground, the exact place where the earthquake starts underground is called the Focus. The location where the earthquake first hits the surface of the earth is called the Epicenter! Hope I helped!
What covers all the surface of the Earth?
The earth is mostly covered in water.
Where is all of the water on or near earths surface?
Most of earth's surface water is in the oceans. The second largest bodies are the polar ice caps. Groundwater (water below the surface) exceeds that in all earth's freshwater lakes, rivers, and streams--which account for the remainder of earth's surface water.
How much of the planet Earth is made up of water?
Surprisingly little. Water covers a little under three-quarters of Earth's surface, but it's almost all on (or just below) the surface, so a relatively tiny fraction of Earth is water.
Is this true or false far less fresh water is located underground than in all Earth's rivers and lakes?
It's true far more fresh water is located underground than in all Earth's rivers and lakes.
What percentage of all water on earth is fresh surface water?
97% salt water 2% fresh water 1% ground and surface water

When should the earth be moved out of its orbit?
In approx 7 billion years because the expanding Sun will swallow planet earth in about 8 billion years, by then all of the air & water should be pumped underground & humanity will be living underground on planet earth because if water & air remained on the surface of the earth it would evapourate out into space due to the heat of the expanding sun. It will take 6.24x10^17 Megatons of TNT to move the earth out of its orbit.
What is the difference ground water and surface water?
Surface water consists of all water that is naturally exposed to the atmosphere including creeks, ponds, rivers, lakes, reservoirs, seas and oceans. Also in this category are springs and wells that are directly influenced by surface water sources. Groundwater is water found beneath the Earth's surface that gradually seeped down by saturating soil or rock. This water is stored in underground crevices and in the pores of rocks and other materials beneath the surface.
