My theory of the whirlpools in the ocean.

Discovery of two 250 mile whirlpools confused scientists today.

My theory: so if the earth is warming at an unprecedented rate, would the normal ocean convection be put into hyperdrive? Vertical currents accelerating for the same reason a tornado is formed?

"As a matter of fact, the phenomenon of giant whirlpools in the World Ocean is not new to science. In most cases, the craters, or rings, as scientists call them, are formed as a result of so-called vertical currents. The latter, in their turn, appear because of differences in water density which appear because of difference in temperatures of water layers. It is an open secret that cold water is thicker and heavier, so it goes down, underneath the masses of warm water, which is lighter. This is the reason why warm currents in the World Ocean always flow closer to the surface, whereas colder currents flow closer to the bottom."
