Progressive Asymmetric Surface Mass Loading: A Northern Hemisphere Bias
Overview Scientists are exploring a provocative hypothesis known as progressive asymmetric surface mass loading. In simple terms, the idea posits that the Northern Hemisphere may be accumulating surface mass at a higher rate than the Southern Hemisphere. This asymmetric loading is proposed as a phenomenon that does not rely on crustal thickening or traditional tectonic…

Progressive Asymmetric Surface Mass Loading: A Hypothesis for Northern Hemisphere Accumulation
Introduction to the Hypothesis The idea of progressive asymmetric surface mass loading proposes that the Northern Hemisphere is gradually accruing surface mass at a higher rate than the Southern Hemisphere. This concept does not claim a sudden tectonic crustal thickening, but rather a persistent imbalance in surface loads that could influence regional gravity, ocean circulation,…

A Hypothesis of Progressive Asymmetric Surface Mass Loading in the Northern Hemisphere
Introduction The study presents a novel hypothesis: the Northern Hemisphere may be experiencing a gradual, asymmetric accumulation of surface mass relative to the Southern Hemisphere. This concept—distinct from tectonic crustal thickening—posits a measurable imbalance in mass at or near the Earth’s surface, potentially influencing geophysical processes without requiring drastic changes in crustal structure. While the…
