Temperatures in the oceans decrease with increasing depth.
With increasing depth, there is less to be had.
Carbon substrate utilization and bacterial diversity decreased with increasing depth.
With increasing depth and temperature, petroleum liquids break down and, finally, only natural gas (methane) remains.
The little available information largely suggests reduced fecundity with increasing depth.
With increasing depth, however, the conditions become increasingly anaerobic (reducing), and molds and peats develop.
The size of the air bubbles decreases with increasing depth within the ice.
Thermocline, oceanic water layer in which water temperature decreases rapidly with increasing depth.
The number of nektonic species and individuals decreases with increasing depth in the ocean.
With increasing depth of burial and increasing temperature, peat deposits are gradually changed to lignite.
These surfaces represent strata of rapidly changing water density with increasing depth, and the associated waves are called internal waves.
