Cyclones enliven the ocean

The cyclones formed in the ocean diverse functions as take and bring nutrients to feed fish, salinity, heat, even oxygenate said university researcher Raúl Gómez Cruz. 

"A cyclone is very rich in biochemical properties, such as plankton" important to life in the sea, said researcher in the Physics Department of the University Center of Exact Sciences and Engineering (CUCEI) of the University of Guadalajara Sciences, according to Notimex. 

"If we understand where born and their characteristics, we can predict when and where to take these nutrients and where we can fish," by contrast, anticyclones are poor in nutrients, told Notimex. 

The academic said the cyclones and anticyclones are rotating structures, the first circulating direction of rotation of the Earth and opposite clockwise, while the second van as clockwise and counter to the movement of the Earth. 



He said "a vortex or cyclone arises from a disturbance such as heat accumulation, subsidence movements and currents", noting that in Yucatan Peninsula as a stream is glued to the coast, but when you no longer find , one is formed. 

Die friction 
He added that a factory vortex is the Loop Current in the Gulf of Mexico, "the current entering the Straits of Yucatan and has headed Cuba and the Straits of Florida, always generates vortices six to eight per year," said . 

He added that the cyclones and anticyclones are a mile beneath the surface of the sea; its dimensions are above 100 km and can have a life from months to five years, depending on where forming. Such bodies die when colliding with an island, the coast or friction with other streams. 

The academic, member of Fluid Dynamics Laboratory of the Institute of Astronomy and Meteorology of the University of Guadalajara, said that the company always confuses cyclones hurricanes, however, he explained, the latter only occur in the atmosphere.
