What percentage of the earth's precipitation occurs over oceans?
Approximately 71 of the Earth's precipitation occurs over oceans.
Lakes rivers and oceans are examples of?
Precipitation
Why the yearly total precipitation over the oceans is greater than the yearly total precipitation over the continents?
The yearly total precipitation over the oceans is greater than over continents because oceans cover more of the Earth's surface and therefore have a larger area from which to receive precipitation. Additionally, the oceans are able to retain heat better than land, leading to more evaporation and subsequent precipitation. Ocean currents also play a role in transporting moisture to different regions, contributing to higher precipitation levels over oceans.
Water falls to the land and oceans during?
Precipitation
Where does precipitation eventually make its way?
Mostly into the oceans.
Is it true that most precipitation falls into the oceans?
Yes, approximately 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by oceans, so it is true that a significant portion of precipitation falls into the oceans. This is due to the oceans' large surface area and their role in the global water cycle.
Why doesn't sea level drop despite oceans experiencing a higher rate of evaporation than precipitation?
Sea level doesn't drop despite oceans experiencing higher evaporation than precipitation because the water that evaporates from the oceans eventually returns as precipitation, maintaining a balance in the water cycle.
Is it true that little precipitation falls directly into the oceans?
false
This precipitation gathers into and that flow down to the lakes and oceans?
Plants
Does little precipitation actually fall directly into the oceans?
Yes
This precipitation gathers into and that flow down to the lakes and oceans and?
Plants
How does the warmingvof the worlds oceans disrupt the flow of the water cycle?
It increases the amount of precipitation:) X4
