These data come from a computer code that numerically solves
dynamical equations for 3D fluid motions in a density stratified,
viscous, incompressible fluid. The vorticity magnitude field is
shown in this Slicer Dicer image. Projected maxima are rendered
on the three background surfaces, and transparency is used to
show isosurfaces representing the vortex cores.
Data are provided courtesy of NorthWest Research Associates,
Inc. The research that led to the creation of the data was
sponsored by the Office of Naval Research and the Department of
the Navy.
