mesopelagic zone
The Mesopelagic (Greek μέσον, middle) (also known as the ''middle pelagic'' or ''twilight zone'') is that part of the pelagic zone that extends from a depth of 200 to 1000 metres (~660 to 3300 feet) below the ocean surface. It lies between the photic epipelagic above and the aphotic bathypelagic below, where there is no light at all.
==Physical conditions==
Although the temperature varies less at any one height than the epipelagic, the mesopelagic is the location of the thermocline; and in warmer regions of the world, the temperature varies from over 20 °C (68 °F) at the top to around 4 °C (39 °F) at the boundary with the bathyal zone. Water generally moves slowly in the mesopelagic with a residency time of about a century though a variety of animals move vertically through the zone on a daily basis and various debris sink down in relatively short time frames.
