But for our harvesting purposes, Bermuda seems the right place doesn't it? We seed the appropriate algae species directly off an island coast somewhere upstream e.g. in Azores, the field widens by diffusion and grows while it gyres clockwise in subtropical temperatures and insolation, and it concentrates again by vortical effect in the eye of the gyre SE of Bermuda a few hundred days later for harvesting... plausible?
