    Why are there such high differences around Britain and pretty much nowhere else? I understand why the Mediterranean sea has almost none, such a large volume just can’t pass the Gibraltar, but I don’t understand why there is so much water moving around Britain. Is it just water moving along and being stopped by land wihnout having much other places to flow?

      Semi-related: never thoughts about this before, but there must be massive currents near Gibraltar
