I am a little confused about the use of the word ¨espesor¨, whether meaning depth or thickness in this context.
Por tal razon, los espesores de los subestratos en que se divide un estrato dado se deben escoger mucho mas pequeños que la longitud de onda de cortante en ese estrato.

thickness

: Correcto. La longitud de onda se mide entre dos picos (m) y el espesor de un subestrato, entre las dos superficies de contacto que lo definen (m). La profundidad del subestrato es la distancia que lo separa de la superficie (m).

thickness
Tiene que ser espesor y no profundidad porque se refiere a los subsestratos como parte de los estratos. Es mi opinión.

: I'm with Leonardo on this. Since the expression is the distance between other layers, 'thickness' of the subject layer' is better in this context.

depth
I would use "depth" in this particular context, consider:

Discussion
- Distance from the ground surface to the stratum (depth?)
- Distance from the top of the stratum to the bottom of the stratum (thickness, depth, height?).
I guess that my doubt is if the word depth could be used for both concepts, or if you think that for an english-speaker the meaning of "depth" in this context would be more naturally associated to the thickness of the stratum.
