Can someone locate or explain this?

How in the world is this possible?

[Bynumite]

I've seen a similar pic before, it's the meeting of two different seas i think.

[Venti Quattro]

Well I searched for that and I found another one.

There would be some damn good fishing along that rip tbh.

[Venti Quattro]

So it is meeting of the seas...

[Halberto]

What seas are we looking at here? It's pretty weird how sharp the contact looks from above. Is it just the water types involved or is there also significant change in depth?

[Venti Quattro]

I've done some reading and the seas meet from opposing directions and they do not merge because their densities are different. The second picture I posted is from Alaska.

This is a video of the North Sea meeting the Baltic

I always wondered how they separated different seas when the map shows they're all connected

I hope it went well

Different basins will have different salinity which then in turn leads to different densities which inhibits the mixing. The reason oil floats on water is due to a difference in density. So when you have two substantially different bodies of water they also have different biological components (and mineral makeups) which lead to the different colors.

Sea water is much more than just water.

When you say biological components, are you referring to the ability of phytoplankton and other similar organisms to absorb/reflect certain wavelengths (giving bodies of water in the ocean a varied color dependent on the quan y of the autotroph species)?

[MannyIsGod]

yes.

gotcha

Yeah man, agreed!

That's a lot of big words for a guy like you. Did you just think you could jump into another thread, copy and paste some wiki, and come across as anything other than a gay bashing bigot?

...and not expect that I would be right there to expose you.

Wow

[DMC]

Meh, if it's the Baltic not so much.

I think I saw something similar to this in the Caymans.

[DeadlyDynasty]

I blame BP

God I hate water.
