This paper advances an explanation for the presence of surface currents in opposite directions on facing sides of some of the main channels of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. It is found that geostrophic dynamics coupled with geometrical
constraints and the general direction of surface drift through the archipelago can readily account for the existence, if not all the properties, of the observed flow patterns.

On sampling and sorting of pebbles and cobbles on shores, a comment on shape development of trondhjemite pebbles and cobbles on shores in the southwestern finnish archipelago, by Mauri Pyokäri (1980)
The Tremiti Islands archipelago, located north of Gargano promontory's coast, is part of a complex geological area within the Adriatic basin, facing the junction between central and southern Apennines. This area is well known for Neogenic-Quaternary
