Geography

Dima020 [189]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The total amount of water on the planet that is present in the <em>atmosphere</em> at any given time is about 0.001% of the total water found on Earth. This atmospheric water is responsible for all storms.

If by in storage we mean in <em>groundwater</em> then the percentage would be 1.69.

Explanation:

The overwhelming majority of all water on our planet resides in the <em>oceans</em>. These hold about 96.5% of the total.

If we only consider freshwater (water with no salt) then the greatest storage areas are <em>ice caps</em>, <em>glaciers</em>, and <em>groundwater aquifers</em>.

nadezda [96]

However, if the city is farther from water, its temperature will be higher. This in contrast to the closeness of a city to land. Therefore, it can be concluded that the city with the greatest temperature is city A.
