Approximately 78% of the water that falls back to the Earth's surface as rain comes from the oceans, while the remaining 22% comes from land sources like rivers and lakes.
During the water cycle, approximately 78 of the water that evaporates falls back as rain.
About 29% of Earth's surface is covered by land, while approximately 71% is covered by water.
About 70% of the precipitation that falls on the land originates from the oceans. This water evaporates from the ocean surface, forms clouds, and is transported by atmospheric circulation patterns to eventually fall as rain or snow over land areas.
If too much rain or snow falls at once, it can lead to flooding, landslides, or avalanches. Excessive rainfall can overwhelm drainage systems, causing water to accumulate and flood low-lying areas. Heavy snowfall can increase the risk of avalanches in mountainous regions and cause roofs to collapse under the weight.
The Earth's oceans generally gain more water through precipitation than they lose through evaporation. On average, approximately 385,000 km³ of water is evaporated from the oceans each year, while around 458,000 km³ of precipitation falls back into them. This imbalance is one of the important factors controlling Earth's water cycle.
During the water cycle, approximately 78 of the water that evaporates falls back as rain.
The water which evaporates fall as rain. The process is called precipitation.
Approximately 90% of the water that evaporates from the Earth's surface falls back as precipitation, including rain, snow, sleet, or hail. The remaining 10% is transferred through evapotranspiration and does not return directly as precipitation.
chicken
It falls as precipitation, such as rain, or hail.
when water falls on a cemented ground the cemented ground can't absorve water much and the water flows away.

it depends on which waterfall :-/
The amount of precipitation that falls around the world may range from less than 0.1 inch per year in some deserts to more than 900 inches per year in the tropics
grass
None. It all falls.
