5.1.2.3 Linear Relationship Between Variation in Precipitation and Water Storage

To investigate how changes in precipitation influence the variation in TWS, the following linear relationship is proposed:

(5.2)

where m is the annual TWS change (the difference between two successive years, in Gt); p is the annual precipitation (in mm); p0 is the average precipitation over a long-term period (in mm); a is the ratio of change between TWS and precipitation (in Gt/mm), i.e., the sensitivity factor of TWS to precipitation; and b is the average annual depletion mass without the influence of precipitation (in Gt).
