There are approximately 1.3 billion cubic kilometers of water in the oceans. 1 cubic kilometer of water contains 1 trillion liters of water. Therefore there are approximately 1,300,000,000,000,000,000,000 liters of water in the oceans, which is 1.3 sextillion liters.

To get to gallons, there are 3.78541178 liters in 1 gallon. Doing the math, that means there are 343,423,668,428,484,681,262 gallons of water in the oceans.

That's 343 quintillion gallons, or put another way, 343 billion BILLION gallons.

That's a lot of water.

this is based on the volume of the sea.. so this isn't taking into account that there is a lot of life in there, fishes,plankton,bacterias,plants etc..

I don't know what the volume of all sealife put together is, but for instance;

There is a hermaphroditic zooplankton species in the Black Sea (average weight of each around 10 g) a total of 1 billion = 109000 Kg in the Black Sea at the end of the 1980s god knows how many there are now, and this is just one specific little plankton thingy in a small sea..

so over the entire oceans there must be one hell of a total weight..

oh and fiy; a fish produces 1.5 times it's own volume to urine each day :P

so god knows how much pee is created each day down there :D

9.8985268 × 1019 US gallons

There is (not approx) 17,543,940,979,332,434 gallons of water within the Atlantic Ocean region. Seventeen Quadrillion Gallons! The Pacific Ocean would be around the 35,000,000,000,000,000 mark.

+++

What does "(not approx.)" mean? It can only be approximate due to firstly, defining the Northern and Southern oceanic boundaries and those across coastal features, and secondly, having a very accurate figure of depth over every square mile. The Atlantic's floor is very irregular, with its mountainous Mid-Atlantic (spreading) Ridge and the associated transform-fault ridges, umpteen discrete sea-mounts and various basins and trenches. The only sensible answer there, assuming the figures are largely right, is that it contains "Approximately 1.8 X 10^16 gallons" . Err, would they become UK gallons East of the MIR?

It would be impossible to calculate how much water the Atlantic ocean contains, everytime it rains the volume will increase. The scale of the Atlantic ocean x the depth of the ocean.... it would be a large amount of water.
