Abstract

The paper develops the previously proposed hypothesis about a system of quasi-stationary vortices formed in the Earth’s mantle during the fall of a large temporary satellite. A system of two-phase vortices in the Earth’s mantle under Siberia induced by an intense energy-carrying cyclonic Kolyma vortex is considered. The system, in addition to the energy-carrying cyclonic Kolyma vortex, includes large-scale vortices—the secondary anticyclonic Great Siberian Vortex and the cyclonic West Siberian vortex of the third order, as well as small-scale vortices. Metal penetration into the Great Siberian Vortex from the periphery of the Kolyma Vortex leads to the formation of the Siberian Global Magnetic Anomaly (GMA). The presence of the West Siberian vortex explains the formation of an oil and gas province, swamps and thermal groundwater in Western Siberia. The system of vortices transfers to the west the heat released during the dissipation of kinetic energy of intense energy-carrying intra-mantle vortices. The heat of intra-mantle vortices is transported to the ocean and permafrost by vapors of mantle matter rising from the boundaries of the vortices to the ocean and permafrost. The vortex system and heat generation in it are controlled by astronomical factors. The heat released during the dissipation of the vortex motion is the cause of the formation of the Great Siberian Polynya, the intensive release of methane on the Arctic shelf, the acceleration of the degradation of permafrost and the formation of explosive craters dangerous to the infrastructure of the area in the tundra on Yamal, Gydan and Taimyr. The heat of the system of intra-mantic vortices may be the cause of warming in the Arctic and global warming.
