Problem #1
Residence Times for the Global Water Storages


(Adapted from Dingman 2008):
  1. Compute the residence times for all seven storage components of the global hydrologic cycle in Figure 3-16 (class handout).  Assume equality of inputs and outputs for each component.
  2. What are the possible implications of these residence times to the response of the various components to pollution and to global warming?
