Carbon dioxide levels in lakes are often high and vary widely from lake to lake based on factors such as the type of nearby ecosystem, land use such as agriculture, sizes of the lake and watershed, amount of precipitation, and because some types of soils and rocks absorb more CO2 than others.

The amount of precipitation in the White Mountains has steadily increased in the period from 1900 to 2000, but the increase does not seem to have been sufficient to stimulate the growth of trees below the tree line.

The records showed that precipitation and temperature patterns had hardly fluctuated during the period, meaning that the amount of water flowing into the lake from nearby streams is likely the same today as it was in 1847.

They compared the amount of water flowing into the lake from rivers, precipitation, and groundwater to the amount evaporating out of the lake; if the lake stayed the same size, the water in and out should balance.

In locations that are accustomed to getting snow during the winter, the total amount of snow each year is already decreasing as the planet warms from increasing greenhouse gases; the percentage of precipitation falling as snow is on the decline, with more of it falling as rain.

If a synoptic report was successfully transmitted and it did not include the amount of precipitaiton, we can not distinguish «no precipitation» from «observation missing» for sure.

From recent research, I would suggest that this is entirely plausible; I could cite several examples of substantial increases (runoff, glacier melt, precipitation, sea - ice loss) which, collectively, amount to a real net increase in the Arctic freshwater budget.

Percent changes in the amount of precipitation falling in very heavy events (defined as the heaviest 1 percent of events) from 1958 to 2012 show a clear national trend toward a greater amount of precipitation being concentrated in very heavy events.

Their analysis showed that although moisture evaporated from the Pacific Ocean is the major source for California precipitation, the amount of water evaporated did not strongly influence precipitation in California, except in the cases of very heavy flooding.

Fertilizer production will almost certainly keep growing to keep pace with human population, but the amount of aerosols created as a result depends on many factors, including air temperature, precipitation, season, time of day, wind patterns and of course the other needed ingredients from industrial or natural sources.

Water levels are influenced by the amount of evaporation from decreased ice cover and warmer air temperatures, by evapotranspiration from warmer air temperatures, and by potential increases in inflow from more precipitation.

Contours are rainfall totals from the Canadian Precipitation Analysis, which combines weather model output with station measurements to estimate regional precipitaPrecipitation Analysis, which combines weather model output with station measurements to estimate regional precipitationprecipitation amounts.

Precipitation amounts can change quite substantially from month to month in many parts of the world, and graphs of multi-decadal time series of monthly values from different datasets can be difficult to compare.

Prior to these papers» publication in the journal Monthly Weather Review, Schneider says, meteorologists knew that the moisture hitting land came from storms in the Pacific, but they did not understand the role atmospheric rivers played in delivering huge amounts of precipitation.

Pronounced long - term trends from 1900 to 2005 have been observed in precipitation amount in some places: significantly wetter in eastern North and South America, northern Europe and northern and central Asia, but drier in the Sahel, southern Africa, the Mediterranean and southern Asia.

Indicators based on daily precipitation data show more mixed patterns of change but significant increases have been seen in the extreme amount derived from wet spells and number of heavy rainfall events.

Hence, even as the potential for heavier precipitation results from increased water vapour amounts, the duration and frequency of events may be curtailed, as it takes longer to recharge the atmosphere with water vapour.

However, volunteer temperature observers were also asked to take precipitation measurements from rain gauges, and starting around 1960 the U.S. Weather Service requested that observers start taking their measurements in the morning (between 7 and 9 AM), as that would minimize the amount of evaporation from rain gauges and result in more accurate precipitation measurements.

Aqua, Latin for water, is a NASA Earth Science satellite mission named for the large amount of information that the mission will be collecting about the Earth's water cycle, including evaporation from the oceans, water vapor in the atmosphere, clouds, precipitation, soil moisture, sea ice, land ice, and snow cover on the land and ice.

Making matters worse, overdevelopment throughout the region increases the amount of impervious surfaces — particularly driveways and parking lots — which prevent more precipitation from being absorbed into the ground.
