Amazing phenomena in the Ocean

The ocean is full of mystery. Humans most often admired from the shore. There are several locations in the world of the dreaded sea. Where planes and ships disappear without a trace. Or have a giant whirlpool, powerful waves, or a circle of mysterious light in the water. There is a place where all the phenomena happening at once: the Bermuda Triangle.
Following a mysterious phenomenon in the ocean like a loaded Russian news sites, Pravda:
1. Bermuda TriangleCovering an area of ​​millions of square kilometers. Called the triangle because of its location in between three regions - the Bermuda Islands, Puerto Rico, and Fort Lauderdale.
Bermuda Triangle mystery disappearance triggered events squadron of five Navy torpedo bombers on December 5, 1945. The bodies of 14 crew of Flight 19 until now not been found. There are at least 50 ships and aircraft reported missing in the region.However, loss of reputation mythical Bermuda Triangle, also appeal the mid-1980s.Several theories attempt to explain the strange phenomena in the Bermuda Triangle - from pseudoscience, psychics, until the UFO. However, the most convincing forward by Joseph Monaghan of Monash University. In 2003, scientists authored an article in the American Journal of Physics. The title, 'Methane Bubbles Could Drowning Ship? "
According to Monaghan, large bubbles can be formed from a solid methane deposits - known as gas hydrates. To note methane gas can condense in the BAWAG great pressure on the sea. Similar deposits of methane ice could be broken, changed the gas, and creating bubbles in the water. The concentration of gas that escape can cause damage to electronic devices on aircraft is also the ship. Not only that, the ship could sink in that location because of the reduced density (density) of water suddenly.
Another phenomenon in the Bermuda Triangle is called the Flying Dutchman - the crew mysteriously disappearing. Scientific theories offered to explain the loss of the sailors. Ie infrasound. Some scientists believe that infrasound generated when methane gas bubbles rising to the surface.
Infrasound vibrations trigger a dangerous resonance in the heart and blood vessels. At that time, humans are exposed to panic-stricken. This is probably what makes sailors panicked and jumped overboard - to escape from the strange feeling that befall him.
However, no single theory that explains, why in the mid-1980s, the Bermuda Triangle stop devouring ships and aircraft. Perhaps because of advances in technology of aircraft and ships.

2. Sargasso Sea
Many people equate the Sargasso Sea in the Bermuda Triangle. In fact these waters are in the southeast of the Bermuda Triangle in the Atlantic Ocean. There is some uniqueness in the region. Ocean moves clockwise, artifacts Sargassum algae in it.
It has a giant ocean eddies which have their own rules. Temperatures outside the vortex is much higher than its exterior. A number of people who sail there said he saw a mirage: for example, the Sun rises in the East and West at the same time.
Richard Sylvester of the University of Western Australia argued, is a centrifugal vortex Sargasso giant - which then creates a small vortex that reaches the bermuda triangle.This small vortex in the air causing a mini cyclones - powerful enough to harm a small plane.
3. Sea Devil (Devil's Sea)
This is a region in the Pacific, around the island of Miyake - 100 kilometers south of Tokyo. 'Brother' Bermuda Triangle can not be found on any map, but the sailors choose to avoid it. Storms can appear suddenly and disappear just as suddenly. Whales, dolphins, even birds do not live in the area. Nine ships disappear within five years in the 1950s. The most famous is the disappearance of the Kaiyo Maru No.5, Japanese research vessel.
Sea Devils are a very active seismic region. Constant moving ocean floor. Volcanic islands appear and disappear regularly. This region is also known to be very active siklonnya activity.
4. Cape of Good Hope
The area is also known as the Cape of Storms. Sinking large ships within a period of hundreds of years. Most of the ships were destroyed because of bad weather, especially the deadly waves, or 'cape roller'. Scientists call it solitary wave - the height can reach 30 meters, in truth composed of two waves merge into one.
Giant waves it creates a large cavity, whose height is only slightly lower than the wave.Although this wave phenomenon could occur in other seas, but the Cape of Good Hope area in the most danger.
5. Eastern Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf
This area is well known phenomenon that is very impressive and mysterious: a giant circle of light swirling on the surface of the water.
German oceanographers, Kurt Kahle believes, that phenomenon is the result of the earthquake under the sea, causing plankton luminescence. Then arose the movement such as rotation of the wheel. However, this hypothesis is drawn criticism lately because it has not been able to explain the transformation secaralogis halos. Modern science also has not been able to explain the object form a perfect circle. Therefore, a new theory emerged which is more absurd: UFO.
6. Whirlpool (Maelstrom)
Although not too impressive as a whirlpool in the Sargasso Sea. But the sailors know about the amazing phenomenon of the vortex of this type. Whirlpool comes two times a day, in the northwestern part of the Norwegian Sea The word 'Maelstrom' was popularized by Edgar Alan Poe. Maelstrom is the water that spins a strong and large.Surface water from the vortex lebihrendah tens of meters from the sea. Its strength tens times the usual flow.
The strange, swirling turns in the opposite direction every three to four months. It could happen anywhere, including the Bermuda Triangle. Believed, the vortex rotates counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern parts of the earth.(Adi)
