Weather Maps:
An isobar that is a closed circle indicates an area of high ("H") or low ("L") pressure center.
Geographic Maps:
An elevation on the map you are looking at. Sometimes numbers accompany the ring, to tell the elevation. Some times there are no numbers.
No, an isobar line connects places that have the same atmospheric pressure. Isotherm lines, on the other hand, connect places with the same air temperature.
Lines that are close together on a map typically indicate a steep slope or elevation change. The closer the lines, the steeper the terrain. These lines are called contour lines and are used to represent the shape of the land and its features.
The isolines that connect the points of equal atmospheric pressure are called iseidomal. These terms are common when using the barometer.
An isoline is used on maps to represent points of equal value. The isoline for air pressure is an isobar.
It joins places of similar barometric pressure
Atmospheric pressure.
An isobar diagram is commonly used in weather forecasting. It shows lines of equal air pressure.
The lines in each diagram represent an electric field. The stronger the field, the close together the lines are.
The lines in each diagram represent an electric field. The stronger the field, the close together the lines are.
An isobar is a line on a weather map connecting points of equal atmospheric pressure, while a front is the boundary between two air masses with different temperature, humidity, and density. Isobars indicate pressure patterns while fronts represent the transition zone between different air masses.
Isobars are lines of equal pressure, isotherms are lines of equal temperature. And isobars are pretty and gorgeous, and isotherms are thermometers.

isobars are a measure of atmospheric pressure. variations in atmospheric pressure basically cause weather - high pressure vs low pressure, etc.
Isobar for atmospheric pressure, isotherm for temperature, or contour for height above (below) sea level.
An isoline is used on maps to represent points of equal value. The isoline for air pressure is an isobar.
