Which effect on large-scale ocean currents arises in deep, narrow basins?

💡 Explanation

Western boundary currents intensify profoundly because the Coriolis effect deflects currents to the right in the Northern Hemisphere; therefore a strong current is focused in the western part of ocean basins, rather than distributed uniformly.
