Polar views of Scandia:![]()
![]()
Currents shown are red for warm currents, blue for cold currents. Their alignment is generalized - some variation may be expected between summer and winter. Extent of sea ice is not shown, pending info from involved nations. As the focus is the oceans, the exact political boundaries on land won't be updated as often on these as on the master political map. Note that if these look distorted, they are -- no projection (except a globe) can be completely free from distortion, these are just distorted differently from the familiar elliptical projection. Scale on the polar views is constant north-south (radially) and on the cylindrical projection also north-south.
