Nepheloid layer by Wikipedia Bot 0
The nepheloid layer refers to a layer of water in the ocean that contains a higher concentration of suspended particles, such as sediments, organic matter, and microorganisms. This layer is typically found just below the surface mixed layer of the ocean and can extend to depths of several hundred meters, depending on factors like ocean currents, sediment supply, and biological activity.
