ther·mo·cline

T0157000 (thûr′mə-klīn′)n.1. An intermediate layer of oceanic water in which temperature decreases more rapidly with depth than in the layers above and below it.2. A layer in a large body of water, such as a lake, that sharply separates regions differing in temperature, so that the temperature gradient across the layer is abrupt.

thermocline

(ˈθɜːməʊˌklaɪn) n (Physical Geography) a temperature gradient in a thermally stratified body of water, such as a lake

ther•mo•cline

(ˈθɜr məˌklaɪn)

n. a layer of water in an ocean or certain lakes, where the temperature gradient is greater than that of the warmer layer above and the colder layer below. [1895–1900; thermo- + Greek klinē bed] ther`mo•clin′al, adj.

thermocline

[′thər·mə‚klīn] (geophysics) A temperature gradient as in a layer of sea water, in which the temperature decrease with depth is greater than that of the overlying and underlying water. Also known as metalimnion. A layer in a thermally stratified body of water in which such a gradient occurs.
