Isobars are normally drawn at 4 mb intervals, with 1000 mb being the base value The small blue numbers are contour labels, which identify the value of an isobar (for example 1004 mb, 1012 mb, etc). An isobaric interval is chosen depending on how many isobar lines are desired For example, an interval of 4 millibars means that an isobar line will be drawn for every 4th millibar increment in air pressure (1 atm pressure is about 1000 millibars) So one might draw isobars for 992mb, 996mb, 1000mb, 1004mb, and so on. 0000011320 00000 n <> Now let's look at an actual map of a portion of the United States containing temperature data. 0000001898 00000 n Let's look for that border on our isotherm map in Diagram 2. 0000003081 00000 n 99 0 obj 91 0 obj /Subtype /Image Isotherms are the lines of the same temperature that are drawn on the map of a region to show its temperature distribution. 0000017344 00000 n Calculate the gradient between Seattle and Los Angeles.
