what would the atmospheric pressure be if with earth's was covered with water? Is a livable environment?

Question

If the Earth were covered with water as in the Noah story of the Bible, what would the atmosphere be like? Would an increased water surface are create so much moisture that it wouldn't support human life?

Answer 1

To the middle eastern human writers of the Bible the whole world (or the whole earth, depending on the version) was the Tigris and Euphrates valley and surrounds. It was flooded when the Black Sea became overloaded with water and spilled off to the south. Since they knew nothing else they considered it as covering the entire world.

Anyway, the air pressure probably would not differ much from today. Humidity would probably be 100 percent much more often, but it would likely be livable (terrariums can approach that humidity and there is no real difficulty sustaining life in them).

Answer 2

There wouldn't be an appreciable difference, other than it would be more humid - as humid as it would be over oceans anywhere.
You do realize, of course......that the story is just a fable......

Answer 3

i dont know of any extra moisture comeing to the planet what we have is what we have but do we loose any when there is an ozone hole
