I'm not seeing any pictures and glass is a very poor thermal insulator.

Hit the reset button and try again :-D

If the existence of theromoline layer was to be ..... discovered?/demonstrated, in honeybee hives , how might that change the design of your hives ?

A thermocline (sometimes metalimnion) is a thin but distinct layer in a large body of fluid (e.g. water, such as an ocean or lake, or air, such as an atmosphere) in which temperature changes more rapidly with depth than it does in the layers above or below.
