Water hemisphere

The water hemisphere, sometimes but not always capitalized as the Water Hemisphere, is a hemisphere on the earth centered on 47°13' S, 178°28' E. Its central point is in New Zealand. The other half of the earth is the land hemisphere.

The water hemisphere has only one-seventh of the land on the earth, including Australia, New Zealand, Antarctica, small part of Southeast Asia and south part of South America. Most of the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean are on the water hemisphere. The area of the oceans of the water hemisphere is much larger than its land area, but the area of the oceans of the land hemisphere is still larger than its land area.
