What is the average precipitation for the open ocean?
Temperature fluctuations in the western oceans are much more dramatic than in the eastern oceans. This results in increased rainfall. Around 95,000 cubic miles of rain falls over the world's oceans each year, more than half of which falls in the western oceans.
What animals can live on land and ocean?
The Earth is more than 75% water. The oceans on our planet make up more than the land on our planet. There is far more animals and species living in the ocean than on the land. Truth is, scientist believe that we only know of about 20% of the animals in the ocean.

tortises are like turtles only that they are far more restricted to land than turtles
Does more precipitation fall over the ocean than over land?
True (there's more ocean than land).
Where does more precipitation occur over the oceans or over the land?
Precipitation occurs more over land because when it rains, The rain collects together in a runoff, leading in to the ocean. This is 100% Correct because I am learning it right now!
Is more water evaporated from ocean than is returned to the ocean by precipitation?
On a long term an equilibrium exist.
Compared to a nearby inland area a land area next to the ocean will most likely have what?
A land area next to the ocean will likely have milder temperatures due to the moderating effect of the ocean. It may also experience higher humidity levels and potentially more precipitation. Additionally, coastal areas can be more prone to coastal erosion and flooding.
Which region of Antarctica has more wildlife the ocean or the land?
The ocean. The land is too dry.
Is there more oil from a land refinery or an ocean refinery?
Theres more oil from a land refinery than a ocean refinery
Is there more ocean or land?
There is more ocean than land on Earth. Oceans cover about 70% of the Earth's surface, while land makes up the remaining 30%.
What are the difference between the conductivity of the ocean surface and precipitation?
Oceans are much more condutive. due to the dissolved Na+ in the ocean.
How does water move from the air to the land?
Water evaporates, that is how it moves from the land to the air and when it precipitates, mostly rains, it moves to the land. Then the cycle starts again. For more information, you can look up the water cycle.
Why is an earthquake in the ocean more dangerous than one on land?
An earthquake in the ocean is dangerous than on land because in the ocean if it occurs it can generate an earthquake which can cause more destruction than an earthaquake on land
Why does the northern hemisphere have less precipitation?
The northern hemisphere generally has less precipitation because there is more land area compared to the southern hemisphere, where there is more open ocean. Land heats up and cools down faster than water, creating less moisture in the air. Additionally, the presence of large mountain ranges like the Rockies and the Himalayas in the northern hemisphere can block moisture-laden air masses, leading to decreased precipitation in certain regions.
Why precipitation different in countries bordering the mediterranean than Atlantic ocean and north sea?
precipitation in countries bordering the atlantic ocean and north sea is spread more evenly throughout the year. -Carolina ^.^
