Answer 1

about half as much as in the conifer

Answer 2

Check this out:

"If you look at the graph to the left, you'll see that next to the rainforest, the temperate deciduous gets the second-most amount of rainfall per year. In the winter, precipitation (rainfall) is in the form of sleet, snow, and hail. The average rainfall is 30 to 60 inches per year. The average temperature of the forest is about 50 degrees Fahrenheit. " [See source.]

Of course, any plant that loses its leaves and then gets them back cyclically over the seasons is deciduous...that's the definition of deciduous. So desert scrub brush that loses its leaves due to a temperature drop over winter is deciduous. And they live in areas where the rainfall is negligible.

So the real answer to your question is...it depends on where the deciduous plant is located on Earth.

Answer 3

Not much. Even less in a tropical environment affected by orogeny
