97.5% of Earth's water is found in the oceans. 2.5% is found in freshwater lakes.
Less than 0.001% of Earth's total water is stored in the atmosphere in the form of water vapor. The majority of Earth's water is found in oceans, followed by glaciers, groundwater, and freshwater lakes and rivers.
is stored in ice caps and glaciers, 30 percent is groundwater, and less than 1 percent is surface water like lakes and rivers. This freshwater is essential for supporting ecosystems, agriculture, and human survival.
Lakes contain about 0.4% of the Earth's water. The majority of Earth's water is found in oceans, with only a small fraction in lakes, rivers, and streams.
About 3% of the earths water is freshwater, most of it in pack ice, glaciers, and aquifers. Only about one-third percent is found in rivers and lakes. The largest freshwater lake by volume is Lake Baikal in Russia.
All bodies of water (lakes and rivers) make 3 % from the total area of Romania.
