Thermocline is defined by having increased temperatures in the surface water but cold water temperatures in the deep sea due to sunlight being unable to penetrate ocean waters the deeply. Sunlight and increased temperatures in water is associated with low nutrients therefore anything with a strong thermocline is pertained to low nutrients but high sunlight.
