Uppermost limits of convective layers and transition zones in the Atlantis II and Discovery Deeps^a

Atlantis II		Discovery
Layer	Upper limit (m)	Layer	Upper limit (m)
ATL-BWI	1,902	DIS-BWI	1,902
ATL-UCLb	2,006
ATL-UCL1	2,015
ATL-UCL2	2,034
ATL-LCL	2,057	DIS-LCL	2,057

^aDetermined by the temperature and salinity profiles generated by the high-range CTD device.

^bThis is the uppermost convective layer in Atlantis II and was not sampled because of its thinness.
