To clarify the responses in regards to TA sinking bellow the layer when you're searching above, the downside is that the sonar returns are heavily influenced by what kind of layer it actually is.
For example, you could be looking for a surface threat, and not detect it until very close, because your TA was dipping bellow the layer and the sound from the surface getting to your TA bellow the layer was muffled (when the SSP is higher above the layer then bellow).

There are a number of layers with different properties modeled in DW. So this explanation is rather simplistic.


EDIT: Actually chazly made a great video detailing what I was talking about:
