## Method

Every row is a published  observation measured in mm/year, ranked highest first. The values were observed between 1991 and 2020. A place appears only when it publishes this exact metric, so an absent place means missing data rather than a low value.

## Boundary

This ranking is a source-backed reference. Read the source, geographic grain and observation date before comparing rows.
