Water sources in grasslands can include rainfall, rivers, streams, lakes, and groundwater. The availability of water in grasslands can vary depending on the season and location. Grasslands are adapted to periods of drought and may have deep root systems to access water from underground sources.
Grasslands typically receive between 10 to 30 inches (25 to 76 centimeters) of precipitation annually, which includes both rain and snow. The amount can vary significantly depending on the specific region and climate. Generally, grasslands have a seasonal distribution of rainfall, with most precipitation occurring during the growing season. This limited water availability influences the types of vegetation and wildlife that thrive in these ecosystems.
Grasslands typically have a shallow soil layer due to frequent fires and grazing, limiting the depth of tree roots. The competition for sunlight and resources with grasses and other vegetation also hinders tree growth in grasslands. Additionally, grasslands tend to have lower moisture availability, which may not support the water requirements of trees.

Availability of water
the water parts of the grass.
grasslands are not found in water bodies and deserts. But mostly deserts, except for few patches of green near an underground water source i.e Oasis.
Grasslands have the most fertile soil because of the constant decay of grass roots that enrich the soil with organic matter. The decomposing roots help to improve soil structure and nutrient availability, making it ideal for plant growth. Additionally, grasslands typically have a balanced water cycle that helps maintain soil fertility.

Grasslands occur on all continents except Antarctica. African Savannah, tall American Grasslands and South American Grasslands and North Western European Grassland. Seasonally flooded grasslands occur in Florida, Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil. Deliberately flooded grasslands are known as Water Meadows.
Lions live in grasslands as it provides a large source of food and usually water is not too far away.
