There is an unequal distribution of land and water between the two hemispheres. The Southern Hemisphere has less land and more water.
The Northern hemisphere is about 60.7% water and 39.3% land.
The Southern hemisphere is about 80.9% water and 19.1% land.
There is greater land mass in the northern hemisphere. Therefore, there is a larger target for them to hit.
southern hemiphere Because there is more land. Look up a map of the world and you will see that the Northern Hemisphere has the largest land mass,,,,not the Southern Hemisphere... Question is still open...
Most of the land on the earth is in the northern hemisphere. Of the 7 continents, 3 are entirely in the Northern hemisphere and 2 more have significant portions north of the equator. north
The northern hemisphere has the most land mass and almost 90% of the human population. You can see this quite clearly simply be looking at the Earth from above the North pole and from below the South pole. See related links (below) to see images of the Earth from these two viewpoints.
an air mass that formed over land. it is cold and dry
Approximately 67% of the total land mass is in the norther hemisphere
The northern hemisphere has much more land than the southern hemisphere.
19.1% Land
No, the water is dominant in the Southern Hemisphere. Most land mass is in the Northern Hemisphere.
There is greater land mass in the northern hemisphere. Therefore, there is a larger target for them to hit.
Since the majority of continental land mass exists in the northern hemisphere, it would be safe to assume that the southern hemisphere has a larger percentage of area covered by the oceans.
I am not sure that they actually do have more Earthquakes in the Northern hemisphere. However, as the Northern Hemisphere has more land mass than the Southern hemisphere, more land based Earthquakes will inevitably be detected.
The Northern Hemisphere contains approximately 7/8 of the world's land mass. Two-thirds of the Northern hemisphere is covered in water.
The centre of the Northern Hemisphere is the northern rotational pole of the planet. This is situated in the Arctic Ocean, not a land/continental mass.
southern hemiphere Because there is more land. Look up a map of the world and you will see that the Northern Hemisphere has the largest land mass,,,,not the Southern Hemisphere... Question is still open...
The Northern Hemishpere has more land mass on it than the Southern Hemishpere.
As far as I know, about two thirds of Africa's land mass is in the NORTHERN hemisphere, with the remaining obviously in the south. You could perhaps phrase your question a little differently: Which hemisphere does Africa have most of its land-mass in?
