How did Banks use "whorls"? I don't remember. I remember him using "escarpment" often, e.g. in The Bridge I think, and also in the "escarpment class" (in the culture novels).

Every atmosphere was whorly. The clouds on Vavatch—that’s when I looked it up. The air whale planet is the last one I remember reading it in respect of.

Huh. I didn't remember that.

To be fair, I had to look up Vavatch. It's been a while since I read the last Banks book. And it really was the last :(
