That if you go deeper than that it is easier to pick you up
In other words therma layer at 140 feet it would be harder to detect you at 150 feet than if you were at 210 feet.
True or false?
and is this modeled in the game?

I can't give you a real life answer, but i can give you a SH4 answer.
False.
In SH4 terms, A thermal layer is boolean. Your either above it, or your not. The layer itself is merely a reduction of the signal strength received by the pinging (or listening) escort. So that aside, geometrically speaking, it's still best to go as deep as you can to get under the sonar beam or minimize the time the sonar beam is on you.
