How this figure is calculated
Renewable internal freshwater resources, total (billion cubic meters) divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Renewable internal freshwater resources, total (billion cubic meters) ÷ Land area (sq. km)
Computed from
- Renewable internal freshwater resources, total AQUASTAT - FAO's Global Information System on Water and Agriculture, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
- Land area FAOSTAT, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
