Evidences for skeletal structures in the ocean

An analysis of databases of photographic images of ocean's surface, taken from various altitudes and for various types of a rough ocean surface, revealed the presence of an ocean's skeletal structures (OSS), which exhibit a tendency toward self-similarity of structuring at various length scales (i.e., within various “generations”). The topology of the OSS appears to be identical to that of a dusty skeletal structures which have been formerly found in a wide range of length scales, media and for various phenomena. The typical OSS consists of separate identical blocks which are linked together to form a network. The size of these blocks is shown to grow with increasing of the rough water.
