'But you also can see this behind one of the smaller icebergs, just south of the largest iceberg.' A cloud vortex above sea ice off Heard Island in the Indian Ocean, about two-thirds of the way from Madagascar to Antarctica.
The Four from the Fantastick: A band of explorers who gained powers when their ship encountered a strange energy vortex at sea.
Viewers are plunged into the vortex of seas in full fury, water at once tumultuous, roiled, chaotic, endless, as molten as lava, as crazed as snowstorms in the mountains -- and intricately, bewitchingly patterned and perplexingly beautiful.
"There are two potential causes: One is that the reduction of the Arctic sea ice can amplify the polar vortex," he said.
The controllers, pH probes, solenoid valves and gas cylinders were connected in series and injected pure CO2 gas into the header when required, where it was dissolved using a vortex mixing device (Red Sea).
Much more recent observations of self-organised vortex arrays of swimming sea urchin spermatazoa near surfaces (Riedel et al., 2005) provide further evidence for synchrony mediated purely by hydrodynamic coupling.
Chlorophyll and total carotenoid contents were determined in 80% acetone by breaking microalgae cells by intensive abrasion with sea sand for 2 min using a vortex mixer.
Warming episodes over a geographical area, covering the Barents Sea and the Polar Sea north from Central Siberia, displaced a polar vortex fragment extremely southwards.
The polar vortex over Antarctica and its adjacent seas is isolated from air outside the region by the polar-front jet stream in the Southern Hemisphere, which circulates between approximately 50° and 65° S over the Southern Ocean.
I've seen companies get sucked into the vortex of VC hell, bobbing in a sea called no-man's land where there is lots of "interest" but a disturbing lack of conviction (check out Eric Paley's excellent post on exactly what this means and how it can impact the fund-raising process).
I was thrilled to hear that Sea Shepherd was involved in an exciting collaboration called The Vortex Project, which is removing plastics from the oceans and beaches.
