has been quoted in a National Geographic article entitled (Re)parting the Seas.

The short piece discusses ocean "borders", which have remained largely unchanged for almost a century. Prof Froyland contends that the boundaries "reflect geopolitics", rather than being based on the way water circulates.

The piece also appeared in the French, Dutch, and Spanish online versions of the publication. Read the article.
