What is water bodies
  • 1 answers

Water Body  - the part of the earth's surface covered with water (such as a river or lake or ocean).

Water covers almost 70% of our Earth. The largest body of water is the ocean, while the remaining bodies of water can be subdivided into categories like glaciers and ice caps, groundwater, freshwater, and atmospheric water. In fact, about 97% of our water resources are saltwater, 2% is stored in glaciers and ice caps, and only 1% is freshwater. Of this 1% being freshwater, 97% is in the form of groundwater, often stored in aquifers deep below the soil surface. The rest is stored in rivers and lakes and is more or less directly usable by humans. Only 0.001% of the total water resources is in the atmosphere.
