Whorl

Whorl applies multiple vortex-like distortions across the terrain to create large scale warping. This can be very useful when creating massive landscapes and wanting to avoid a patterning in the noise, or for creating slightly surreal or alien landscapes.

Whorl can be overpowering if used by itself. An effective way to tone down Whorl is to lower the Influence value in Modifier Stack or use one of the blend modes.
