Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove estimates for the variance of the real and imaginary part of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function in short intervals. We give three different formulations of these results. Assuming a conjecture of Chan for how often gaps between zeros can be close to a fixed nonzero value, we prove a conjecture of Berry (1988) for the number variance of zeta zeros in the non-universal regime. In this range, GUE statistics do not describe the distribution of the zeros. We also calculate lower-order terms in the second moment of the logarithm of the modulus of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. Assuming Montgomery's pair correlation conjecture, this establishes a special case of a conjecture of Keating and Snaith (2000).
