What is different of northern hemisphere and Southern hemisphere?
The northern hemisphere consists of all the water and land surface that is north of the equator. It amounts to exactly half of the Earth's surface. The southern hemisphere consists of all the water and land surface that is south of the equator. It exactly covers the other half of the Earth's surface.
What hemisphere has more water the South or North hemisphere?
The southern hemisphere has more water! :)The southern hemisphere has water on 81% of its surface and the northern hemisphere has water on only 61% of its surface.The southern hemisphere has more water than the northern hemisphere because the northern hemisphere has the continent of Asia in it which takes up a lot of space.

Do most of the world's population live North or South of the Equator?
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.
why is new york city located in the northern hemisphere?
New York City, like most places on Earth, is located in the Northern Hemisphere due to the way the Earth is divided by the equator. The Earth is divided into two hemispheres: the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. The equator is an imaginary line that circles the Earth horizontally, dividing it into two equal halves: the northern half (Northern Hemisphere) and the southern half (Southern Hemisphere). New York City's geographical coordinates place it well above the equator, in the northern portion of the Earth. As a result, it falls within the Northern Hemisphere. The city is situated at approximately 40.7128 degrees latitude North and 74.0060 degrees longitude West. The distribution of land and water on Earth's surface, along with the Earth's rotation on its axis, determines the division of hemispheres. The Northern Hemisphere contains the majority of the world's landmasses, including North America, Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa. This is why cities like New York City are located in the Northern Hemisphere.
Does the north hemisphere have more water than the southern?
No, actually I think the southern hemisphere has more water because most of the countries/landmasses are located in the northern hemisphere.

There is more land surface in the Northern Hemisphere and land has a lower specific heat than water therefore warming faster than the vast oceans of the Southern Hemisphere.
Which hemisphere has more water southern or northern?
The Southern Hemisphere contains the most water
If water drains counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere what happens if one is exactly on the equator which direction would it go?
It drains straight... no spinning. I was recently at the equator in Kenya and they had a demo to show this. It was quite intriguing to witness!
