This post, and web address looked a little fishy to
me, so I googled the information, and found a bunch
of web sites with this story.

The new story says:
"turbulence levels as large as one-10th watt per
cubic meter"

One-10th watt ?? that would be 1/10 watt right?
that's nothing. That would be the equivalent of 1
100 watt powerhead every 1,000 cubic meters. That's
not much water movement. That makes no sense at all.
Maybe I'm missing something.

FSU study in Nature says newfound turbulence in undersea mountains
affects ocean circulation.

More than a mile beneath the Atlantic's surface, roughly halfway
between New York and Portugal, seawater rushing through the narrow
gullies of an underwater mountain range much as winds gust between a
city's tall buildings is generating one of the most turbulent areas
ever observed in the deep ocean.
