¿Por qué los mares cerrados, como el Mediterráneo, presentan mayores niveles de contaminación?
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Los mares cerrados, como el Mar Mediterráneo, presentan mayores niveles de contaminación porque son entera o mayoritariamente formados por cuencas endorreicas, las cuales no tienen salida directa hacia el océano. De esta manera, las corrientes marítimas no desagotan sus residuos en el océano, sino que continúan retroalimentándose de manera cícilica, con lo que el conjunto de desechos que viaja en dichas corrientes se queda constantemente dentro de la misma cuenca.
