[[File:Total Renewable Freshwater Resources in mm per year By WaterGAP Average 1961-1990.jpg|thumb|Total renewable freshwater resources of the world, in mm/year (1 mm is equivalent to 1 L of water per m<sup>2</sup>) (long-term average for the years 1961–1990). Resolution is 0.5° longitude x 0.5° latitude (equivalent to 55 km x 55 km at the equator). Computed by the global freshwater model [[WaterGAP]].]]The total quantity of water available at any given time is an important consideration. Some human water users have an intermittent need for water. For example, many [[farm]]s require large quantities of water in the spring, and no water at all in the winter
