Notes (2010)

I would like to point at the fact that this classification is pretty much simplistic: in fact, a world might have no sea but still have a very wet atmosphere.

Hydrosphere reflects surface liquid coverage. This is not always water: liquid methane counts too, for example. By the same token, water that is permanently trapped in clouds or underground does not count (but is very unlikely to account for a majority of a given world's water: if it's in clouds either it'd precipitate out or boil away over geologic time, and water trapped underground tends to find its way out over that span).
