How this figure is calculated
Annual freshwater withdrawals, total (billion cubic meters) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Annual freshwater withdrawals, total (billion cubic meters) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Annual freshwater withdrawals, total AQUASTAT - FAO's Global Information System on Water and Agriculture, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
