Major Lakes in Japan. The mean annual precipitation is about 1,700 mm (650 billion mÂ³) in Japan, which is more than the global mean precipitation (900 to 1,000 mm). About 35 % of the precipitation amount is lost through evapotranspiration, and the amount of water available is about 420 billion mÂ³. It is likely that Japan is a country with the large amount of precipitation. However, the change of stream-flow is large in Japan through a year. The time of the large stream-flow increased by melted snow, rain in a rainy season and the typhoon and the time of little stream-flow are repeated.
Doxology passed into English from Medieval Latin doxologia, which in turn comes from the Greek term doxa, meaning opinion or glory, and the suffix -logia, which refers to oral or written expression.
