6 Phenomena in the Ocean of the most mysterious

beauty will save the sea but the waves and beaches, but on the other hand also save a lot of mystery that is staggering
The following are 6 ocean that has a mysterious natural phenomenon :
 
1. Bermuda Triangle 
This name is most widely known in recent decades due to the many mysterious events in the area of ​​millions of square kilometers and was among the three regions, namely the Bermuda Islands, Puerto Rico, and Fort Lauderdale.
The name of the Bermuda Triangle began to familiar when one fighter squadron consisting of five Navy torpedo bomber, lost on December 5, 1945. Up to now 14 bodies of the crew and the ship wreck was not found. According to the data, until now at least 50 ships and aircraft reported missing in the area.
In the 1980s, the Bermuda Triangle mystical loss of reputation because it no longer 'eat' anything passing over it. However, a number of theories have attempted to uncover the mystery, both in terms of pseudoscience, psychics, until the UFO. However. The most convincing theory is put forward 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 deposits of solid methane - 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 equipment on board aircraft. 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 can be stricken with panic. This is probably what makes the sailors panicked and jumped overboard - to escape the strange feeling that befall him.
However, no one theory that explains, why in the mid-1980s, the Bermuda Triangle stop devouring ships and aircraft. Perhaps due to technological advances of aircraft and ships.


2. Sargasso Sea 
Many people equate the Sargasso Sea in the Bermuda Triangle. Though there are in the southeastern waters of the Bermuda Triangle in the Atlantic Ocean. There is some uniqueness in the region. Ocean moves in a clockwise direction, artifacts Sargassum algae in it.
It has a giant ocean eddies which have their own rules. The temperature 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 on a regular basis. This region is also known to be very active siklonnya activity.



4. Cape of Good Hope 
This area is also known as the Cape of Storms. Large ships sunk in the 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 that 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 halo circling in the water.
German oceanographers, Kurt Kahle believes, that phenomenon is the result of the undersea earthquake, which caused plankton luminescence. Then arose the movement such as rotation of the wheel. However, this hypothesis criticism lately because it has not been able to explain the transformation secaralogis halos. Modern science also has not been able to explain the perfectly circular shape object. 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 power of tens of times higher than normal currents.
The strange, swirling in the opposite direction change every three to four months. Can occur anywhere, including the Bermuda Triangle. Believed, the vortex rotates counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern parts of the earth.
