Thermoclines reduce sonar effectiveness, its thicker water so due to some physics thing (I can't explain it but I can visualize it in my head) so it returns a slightly less accurate reading.
Basically just stay under the thermocline and dont run on anything past 2 knots. Should be able to slip away. At least you didn't tangle with 3 destroyers in Osaka bay, hoo boy that was a tough escape, 100 feet of water+DDs=Pure luck to avoid their DC runs and skill to get out to deeper waters to avoid them.
