| Publisher Description: Earth is gyroscopic with three Vortical Rods (VR). Earth's polar axis is the primary VR. Lake Victoria, Africa, is the 30 VR running through to the Pacific Ocean. North Banda Basin is the 120 VR running through to Sipaliwini, South America. The equatorial VRs intersect at right angles perpendicular to the polar axis. North Banda Basin (NB2V) possesses binary vortices; one rotates counter clockwise while the other rotates clockwise. This study addresses NB2V's primary vortex. A subsequent study will address NB2V's binary companion vortex. Over 200 vortices' locations have been plotted for future study. Some vortices are clearly evident (e.g., Fiji Island) while others are suspect. The Earth is covered with lithospheric vortices that not only affect the crustal appearance, but also have a major impact on agriculture and the atmosphere. Gravity is generated by vortices in concert with mass. Naturally, the greater an object's mass, the greater its effect on the surrounding elements as it rotates on its axis. |
