Thermal Stratification

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
It is an important concept for the course / WikiProject I am in. It initially looks like a decent Wikipedia page.

Evaluate the article
The lead section does a good job of summarizing the topic. However, it does not discuss the main subjects/headers of the page. The content looks up to date and most of the resources appear to be recent. The content is in a very neutral tone as well even when talking about human influences. There is only one image showing the three thermal layers for stratified lakes. Temperature vs Oxygen dissolved graphs on a depth scale might be helpful in showing what the difference between the layers is. As well as an image for different depths have on stratification instead of the generic image.

This article is of high importance for the WikiProject Lakes and mid-importance for the WikiProject Limnology and Oceanography. Both consider this Wikipedia page to be a stub quality. There was discussion on whether to merge the different webpages of Epilimnion, Hypolimnion, Metalimnion into this page. There was no consensus so it did not occur.
