Geography of the North Sea

The North Sea is bounded by the Orkney Islands and east coasts of England and Scotland to the west[2] and the northern and central European mainland to the east and south, including Norway, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France.[3] In the southwest, beyond the Straits of Dover, the North Sea becomes the English Channel connecting to the Atlantic Ocean.[2][3] In the east, it connects to the Baltic Sea via the Skagerrak and Kattegat,[3] narrow straits that separate Denmark from Norway and Sweden respectively.[2] In the north it is bordered by the Shetland Islands, and connects with the Norwegian Sea, which lies in the very north-eastern part of the Atlantic.[2][4]

It is more than 970 kilometres (600 mi) long and 580 kilometres (360 mi) wide, with an area of 750,000 square kilometres (290,000 sq mi) and a volume of 94,000 cubic kilometres (23,000 cu mi).[5] Around the edges of the North Sea are sizeable islands and archipelagos, including Shetland, Orkney, and the Frisian Islands.[3] The North Sea receives freshwater from a number of European continental watersheds, as well as the British Isles island watersheds. A large part of the European drainage basin empties into the North Sea including water from the Baltic Sea. The largest and most important affecting the North Sea are the Elbe and the Rhine - Meuse watershed.[6] Around 184 million people live in the catchment area of the rivers that flow into the North Sea encompassing some highly industrialized areas
