Scientists find black holes on EARTH: Oceanic whirlpools are thought to work same way as space phenomena  | Mail Online




Scientists believe these ocean eddies could moderate the negative impact of melting sea ice in a warming climate.


But up until now they’ve been unable to quantify this impact because the exact boundaries of these swirling water bodies have remained a mystery.


George Haller, professor of Nonlinear Dynamics at ETH Zurich, and Francisco Beron-Vera, research Professor of Oceanography at the University of Miami, believe they have now solved this puzzle.


Using mathematical models, they isolated water-transporting eddies from a sequence of satellite observations.


They did this by detecting their rotating edges, which the scientists found were indicators of the whirlpool within.
