sea_water_potential_temperature_vertical_mean_over_pelagic_layer
The vertical mean of sea water potential temperature in the pelagic layer of the ocean. Sea water potential temperature is the temperature a parcel of sea water would have if moved adiabatically to sea level pressure. The pelagic layer considers 3 vertical layers, The epipelagic layer is the ocean layer with light levels sufficient for photosynthesis. The upper mesopelagic layer is the upper half of the ocean layer that isn't totally dark but has light levels that are insufficient for photosynthesis. The lower mesopelagic layer is the lower half of the ocean layer that isn't totally dark but has light levels that are insufficient for photosynthesis.
