measurementIn the southern hemisphere, the temperature difference between the mean temperature in 1980 and the reference average temperature (1961–1990) was 0.25 °C, which changed to 0.18 °C in 2000 and 0.57 °C in 2020.
measurementData from Climate Reanalyzer and various satellites show a progressive increase in atmospheric water vapor over the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, the Tropics, and globally since the 1980s.
measurementIn 2022, relative humidity values over the Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, Tropics, and Global were −1.03, 0.43, 0.32, and −0.37%rh above the 1991–2020 average, respectively.
measurementRelative humidity has generally decreased slightly in the northern and southern hemispheres and globally since 1970, while it has remained almost stable in the tropical regions.
claimGreenhouse gas emissions are higher in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere, and because these gases persist long enough to disperse globally, they influence the temperature difference between the two hemispheres.
claimThe temperature increase in the Northern Hemisphere is greater than the temperature increase in the Southern Hemisphere.
measurementAccording to the HadCRUT5 data set, average temperature anomaly values for the global, northern, and southern hemispheres have shown a high increasing trend since 1970.
measurementSpecific humidity anomaly values in the northern hemisphere, southern hemisphere, tropical regions, and the world increased by 0.12, 0.06, 0.11, and 0.11 g/kg, respectively, relative to the 1991–2020 average.
measurementSpecific humidity has generally increased in the northern hemisphere, tropical regions, and globally since 1970, while it has remained stable in the southern hemisphere.
claimGreenhouse gas emissions are higher in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere, and because these gases persist for long periods, they spread across both hemispheres, influencing the temperature difference between them.
