Two scientists whose studies were believed to have resolved the mystery of Bermuda Triangle said that such claims are unsubstantiated. The scientists said that their research work was "misrepresented." The scientists were featured in a Science Channel show "What's on Earth." However, the researchers have criticized the way their work was used in the show.

One of the scientists, Randy Cerveny, director of the meteorology department at Arizona State University, told The Washington Post that the show had "horrendous" editing. The scientist added that he was "really upset" when he saw the show. Cerveny is also the lead rapporteur on extreme records for the United Nations' World Meteorological Organization.

The "What on Earth" show had suggested that the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle may finally have been solved. According to the show, hexagonal cloud patterns above the triangle might be the reason behind the mystery. However, Steven Miller, an atmospheric science researcher from Colorado State and one of the scientists featured on the show, said that these patterns are not mysterious at all.

Cerveny said that the show misrepresented the work to suggest that there had been a breakthrough. He clarified that the Bermuda Triangle is still a mystery and no such breakthrough has been made. The Triangle has been the subject of speculations for a long time as a large number of unexplained nautical and aerial mishaps have occurred in the region. However, new studies show that the rate of such incidents in the region is more or less in line with other areas of ocean.
