a stratification is a term generally used for layering of sediments. Thus a "stratified" ocean is one in which a layer of sediments accumulate at the bottom of the ocean and over time, sediment infill from the continents fill up small local areas around the points where fresh water meets saline ocean water. These areas fill with so much sediments, eventually they become stratified with sediment layers and dry up.
Oceans are stratified by density because they are suspended in water. On land most objects are denser than air but in water most objects are not as dense as water. The denser an object is the deeper it will sink.
The ocean is stratified with denser layers below less dense layers.
Fish have a 'swim bladder'. They can generate gas to inflate it and float, or can remove gas from it to deflate it and sink.
Density depends on the chemical composition of waters and temperature.
the density of sea increases with depth
The thermohaline circulation is a term for the global density-driven circulation of the oceans. Derivation is from thermo- for heat and -haline for salt, which together determine the density of sea water
Of all the solid layers of the earth, the Crust has the least mass. It is the thinest layer, has the lowest density (it floats on the mantle), and in the oceans, it is only about four miles thick.However, the layer with the least mass is not solid, but gaseous. You're breathing it!

Stratified refers to layers. The epithelial cells are arranged as such.
The stratified squamos lines the inside of the mouth.
Stratified rocks have a defined horizontal layering.
It's due to the chemical reaction of the co2 on the ocean water, since there is no salt the density increases
Simple columnar epithelium cells will heal faster than stratified squamous cells. The stratified squamous cells rarely have contact with blood.
A couple of synonyms for stratified are flaky, laminated, or stratiform.
