An Atlas of the Global Water Cycle
by Wee Ho Lim, Michael L. Roderick
Publisher: ANU E Press 2009
ISBN-13: 9781921536892
Number of pages: 299
Description:
The maps and tables in the Atlas document rainfall, evaporation and runoff estimates for the 20th century along with predictions of the same quantities at the end of the 21st century. The predictions are made available here via the ongoing cooperation by the international climate modeling community who routinely archive their results.
