    Thanks for the feedback Naima! I did notice a few gyres going in the wrong direction for their hemisphere so I've corrected them. Let me know if there's anything else that looks wrong. Regarding the poles it's actually quite normal for there to be small-ish gyres, such as the East Spitsbergen Coastal Current or the Baffin Island/Labrador Current; the projection means there's more lateral space at the poles than it appears. That said I realized that my circumpolar current in the south pole was flowing in the wrong direction so I've corrected that.

    And yes, of course I will also be taking into account elevation, pressure systems, etc... I just haven't gotten to that stage quite yet.
