Cosa (chi) è métalimnion - definizione

DISTINCT LAYER IN A LARGE BODY OF FLUID IN WHICH TEMPERATURE CHANGES MORE RAPIDLY WITH DEPTH THAN IT DOES IN THE LAYERS ABOVE OR BELOW
Metalimnion; Metalimnion layer; Thermally layered zones; Thermoclines; Metalimnia; Metalimnions; Ocean thermal gradient; Thermal layer
  • Lakes are stratified into three separate layers: the [[epilimnion]] (I), metalimnion (II), and (III) [[hypolimnion]].<br/>The scales are used to associate each section of the stratification to their corresponding depths and temperatures. The arrow is used to show the movement of wind over the surface of the water, which initiates the turnover in the epilimnion and hypolimnion.

thermocline         
['??:m?(?)kl??n]
¦ noun a temperature gradient in a lake or other body of water, separating layers at different temperatures.
Thermocline         
A thermocline (also known as the thermal layer or the metalimnion in lakes) is a thin but distinct layer in a large body of fluid (e.g.

Thermocline

A thermocline (also known as the thermal layer or the metalimnion in lakes) is a distinct layer based on temperature within a large body of fluid (e.g. water, as in an ocean or lake; or air, e.g. an atmosphere) with a high gradient of distinct temperature differences associated with depth. In the ocean, the thermocline divides the upper mixed layer from the calm deep water below.

Depending largely on season, latitude, and turbulent mixing by wind, thermoclines may be a semi-permanent feature of the body of water in which they occur, or they may form temporarily in response to phenomena such as the radiative heating/cooling of surface water during the day/night. Factors that affect the depth and thickness of a thermocline include seasonal weather variations, latitude, and local environmental conditions, such as tides and currents.
