The descent into the thermocline is noted for which of the following?
A)constant temperatures and increasing pressures
B)decreasing temperatures
C)increasing temperatures
D)decreasing temperatures and decreasing pressures
E)increasing temperatures and increasing pressures
As you go down down the thermocline or metalimnion in a lake ( this is the are where you feel that the temperature of the water changes), the noted change is the decrease in temperature and increase of pressure.
Thermocline is a term used in oceanography that refers to the drastic change in temperature due to the depth of aquatic environments. Thermocline refers to decreasing temperatures in relation to the depth of the sea (or any other aquatic environment), in other words, we can say that as you get deeper into the sea, you will notice lower and lower temperatures.
