1. a.) The total volume of precipitation on the land in the Philippines.

Total Volume = Mean Annual Precipitation x Land Area


Total Volume = (2514 mm x 1m/1000mm) (3.0 x 10^5 km² x 1000^2)
Total Volume = 7.542 x 10^11 cu.m.
b.) The same w/ a. I don’t know. Only the land area was given and no
data for the ocean. Perhaps it was included in your lecture the
percentage.
2. a.) Estimated mean annual run-off.
Run-off in CV = Run-off x Basin Area
Run-off in CV = 418mm x 1m/1000mm x 27753km² x 1000²m²/km²
Run-off in CV = 1.16 x 10^10 cu.m.

Run-off in RDM = 534mm x 1m/1000mm x 23169km² x 1000²m²/km²


Run-off in RDM = 1.24 x 10^10 cu.m.

b.) Maximum water resources per capita


In Cv = 1.16 x 10^10 ÷ 818661 = 14169 cu.m. per capita per year
In RDM = 1.24 x 10^10 ÷ 1716810 = 7222.70 cu.m. per capita per year

c.) Maximum water resources in percentage


In CV = 334.4mm x 1m/1000mm x 22753km² x 1000²m²/km²
In CV = 7.61 x 10^9 cu.m
% = (1.16 x 10^10 - 7.61 x 10^9) ÷ 1.16 x 10^10 x 100
% = 34.40 % decrease

in RDM = 454mm x 1m/1000mm x 23169km² x 1000²m²/km²


in RDM = 1.05 x 10^10 cu.m.
% = (1.24 - 1.05) ÷ 1.24 x 100
% = 15.32 % decrease
