5 Mediterranean Facts. by Nobody: 2:12pm On Nov 17, 2015
Did you know this about the mediterranean sea.

1) .The mediterranean sea used to be a desert basin. The gibraltar rock is a remnant of the ancient limestone dam. A reminder of the time when an intermittently dry mediterranean basin seperate Europe and Africa.
2) .Every year about 4000 cubic kilometres of water is evaporated from the mediterranean sea. And if this continues for 1000 years the mediterranean sea will dry up.
3) .Only 400 cubic kilometres is replace by rain water and inflow from rivers. How come it doesn't dry up annually.
4) .Water flows into the mediterranean sea through the strait of gibraltar from the Atlantic ocean. That's why it doesn't dry up.
5) .The flow of water from the strait of gibraltar is 100x the volume of Niagara falls.
