What runs and never gets tired?

What runs and has no feet, roars but has no mouth?

What lives in winter, dies in summer, and grows with its root upward?

EXPLAIN: Water on EarthEXPLAIN: Water on Earth

97.5% of Earth’s water is salt water

2.5% of Earth’s water is fresh water

98.7% of fresh water is frozen/ underground

1.3% of fresh water is surface water

Less than 1% of Earth’s water is usable for humans.

GPMGPM

The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Satellite will collect precipitation data from around the world.

Knowing where and how much rain or snow falls globally is vital to understanding how weather and climate impact both our environment and Earth’s water and energy cycles. Precipitation patterns have effects on agriculture, fresh water availability, and responses to natural disasters.
