A thermocline - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

When pressure testing a new line, how much pressure do you add? -1.5 times normal pressure, up to 150 pounds, whichever is greater What would cause a repeat Bac-T sample? -Incomplete form, not enough sample, silt or slime in the bottle, positive e-coli, all of the above What are the layers of stratification? -Upper layer - Epilimnion. Middle layer - Thermocline. Bottom Layer - Hypolimnion. What standard must bleach meet? -NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) What is the Solid contact u...

What is the Gulf Stream? - Answer What is the thermocline? - Answer The area where there is a rapid temperature decrease with a depth of a few hundred meters below the surface How does oceanic temperature vary with depth? - Answer Warmest temperature found near surface (absorbs solar radiation) Then thermocline (temperature decreases rapidly) Deep ocean waters are only a few degrees above freezing What is upwelling? How does it affect oceanic temperature? - Answer Vertical transport ...
