thread_title:  Additional links about meromictic lakes 

message: Why are these terms used for meromictic lakes different to those used to describe other lakes? The lake stratification page uses the terms epilimnion, thermocline and hypolimnion. I think it would be clearer if these terms were used in this article but there may be a reason to use the others.
:I was wondering about the same thing.  It seems like layers of a meromictic lake are divided into two (mixolimnion & monimolimnion) or three (epilimnion, metalimnion & hypolimnion) layers and the terminology is determined more by the person doing the describing than any actual differences in the lake.  I noticed that in the case of Jellyfish Lake (an article that I edited substantially), one could easily see the lake as divided into three layers instead of two as it is normally described.  The lower layer clearly has two anoxic divisions, one where the bacteria grow, where the hydrogen sulfide concentration quickly rises and there is still some light penetration and one that is without bacteria, with a slowly rising hydrogen sulfide level and that is dark.  So could epilimnion, metalimnion and the hypolimnion terms be applied to that lake?  Under what situations does the two layer terminology apply and under what situations does the three layer terminology apply?Davefoc (talk) 21:04, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Because of these unique bacteria, sulfur is cycled through the chemocline. During the day dihydrogen sulfide is absent, while at night concentrations build up.The Role of Phototrophic Bacteria in the Sulfur Cycle of a Meromictic Lake
Can anyone explain the significance of this statement?  And does "through" mean "across"?
