The Climatic Water Balance (CWB) results from the Precipitation (actual) minus Evapotranspiration (potential) Climatic Water Balance is actual Precipitation minus potential Evapotranspiration CWB=P-PET Exp: PET= 16.09 mm/month P= 46 mm/month CWB=46-16.09 =29.91 mm/month

The potential evapotranspiration concept was first introduced in the late 1940s and 50s by Penman and it is defined as " the amount of water transpired in a given time by a short green crop , completely shading the ground , of uniform height and with adequate water status in the soil profile ". Note that in the definition of potential evapotranspiration , the evapotranspiration rate is not related to a specific crop .

Climate ratio is used to describe the moisture side of climate. It compares the precipitation (P) with the potential evapotranspiration (Ep) for a region. One way to do this is to express the relationship between them as a ratio using the formula: Climate ratio = P / Ep When the potential evaporation is greater than yearly precipitation, this ratio is less than 1. When precipitation is greater than evapotranspiration, the ratio is greater than 1. P: precipitation (in mm) or the amount of moisture available for evapotranspiration, evapotranspiration is the combined process of evaporation and plant respiration. Ep: potential evapotranspiration (in mm) or the amount of moisture needed for evapotranspiration. This value increases as temperature and plant life increase. The climate ratios are used to determine climate type: P/Ep: Less than 0.4: arid climate 0.4 - 0.8: semiarid climate 0.8 - 1.2: subhumid climate Greater than 1.2: humid climate Source: NOAA

CFC's have highest potential. They react with ozone and destroy it.
Lithium has the highest negative potential of -3.045 volts
In The Online World It Says That, "They are usually identified by having a low precipitation to potential evapotranspiration (P/PET) ratio."
