If I had $100 to represent earths water, $95 would be in the earth's ocean. Ninety-five dollars would be in the earth's ocean's because 95% of earths water is comprised of oceans. This leaves only 5% (or $5) representing all of the rest of earth's water. The five dollars left over is comprised of fresh water and a very small portion of our $5 represents "other saline waters. The fresh water can be broke down mainly into groundwater and glacier water.
