***Off Topic for GRNO night owls***

Looks like the Nikkei is a little nervous today. Will be interesting to see how it affects the Dow and Nasdaq. Seems we've sort of departed from the "trouble in paradise" (Asia) moves.

Always wondered if there is a ton of money being made everyday by front-running the US Markets based on the Asia/European markets' moves. I'm sure of it. Anyone know of any links to studies done on this subject?

Getting really off topic now ...

I hate to pretend to be an expert on any of this, but I suspect wind is the main generator of water circulation in a shallow lake. In the deep ocean, the sun's heat will cause remarkable currents which affect the climates across regions of the world. The sun heats the shallow Gulf of Mexico and Carribean Sea, and a definite current of warm water flows up the East Coast, around the top of the Atlantic, and heats Europe.

In the Pacific, warm water is pushed west across the tropic zone and collects in the Indonesian archipelego. The Pacific is deep, but the distance across is long, giving wind a chance to work. This flow of warm water at the top of the ocean pushes cold water back toward the Americas, which wells up as it gets to the shallows, bringing a load of organic material with it. This organic material, which had been created by living organisms which died and settled to the bottom, provides food for the ocean ecology along the west coast of the Americas and is the fuel for the rich fishing grounds of the eastern Pacific. Thus this circulation process which is undesirable in the Black Sea is very desirable to us in the Pacific.

For about the past 5,000 years, that process in the Pacific has developed a cycle lasting several years in which the circulation pattern reverses, causing the El Nino/La Nina effect. I don't know why that happens and I don't think anybody else does either.

I don't guarantee any of the above, especially the spelling.

<< off off topic >>. I apologize for both: not answering to you in time and littering the thread now. I don't feel it's appropriate to send you "unsolicited" e-mail. Partially Charles answered your question. Let me illustrate it with a scene from the real life.
In the morning after two days storm, water surface of an inlet covered by dead fish. All population, standing in water up to waist, fill up their buckets, bags, boxes- whatever can be found. That is "bubbles" effect. But it was, it is and it will be this way. Human activity has nothing to do with it. The explanations given by Charles
(or by the author of the article) are hard to agree with.
First, the Black Sea is not the only almost " sea-lake" in the world.
The shallow Baltic would suit to such definition much better. Then, there are Red Sea( which has some abnormalities, indeed) and even Persian Gulf hosting two big rivers. And what to say about the the Caspian Sea, which is a real lake filled with "sea water". It has almost 150 years long history of petroleum exploitation (Hundred years ago it was a battlefield for rights between Rockefeller and Nobel's- two Alfred's brothers. Rocky lost). Why such conditions don't exist in, for example, Baikal, with only one river (Angara) running out for a long way to Arctic?
Second, I've never heard about dead tree trunks. North coast mostly forestless (steppe), East and South are mountainous . The rivers: Danube has a delta, Dnepr runs through rapids (so called "porogi" - thresholds)and can't deliver, Don and Kuban are steppe rivers. ( By the way, all rivers names are not of Slavic or Turkey languages origin . They are Celtic words). Caucasus rivers run east toward Caspian Sea. Ones, running West are rather creeks than rivers.
Such abnormality of the Black Sea is either a "birth defect" or results of cracks in a sea bed in an active seismic zone.
Human activity damaged that, one of a few Earth paradises, terribly.
But, unfortunately, GRNO is unable to help.
All above, of course, is just an opinion of an amateur.
