A lake has an area of 10 km². During a specific month the lake evaporation was 90 mm. During the same month the inflow to the lake from a river was on average 1.2 m/s and the outflow from the lake via another river was on average 1.1 m/s. Also, for the same month a water level increase of 100 mm for the lake was observed. By using water budget equation, estimate the precipitation in mm during that month and interpret the important assumption for your answer.
