Thermal Stratification in the Arctic Ocean

Fine scale measurements of the vertical temperature profile in an Arctic water column show the presence of several cascaded isothermal layers. Layers between the depths of 300 and 350 meters range from 2 to 10 meters in thickness, while the temperature change between adjacent layers is approximately...
