Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-003855
A type of map that illustrates the underwater topography of a lakebed, riverbed, or seafloor. It provides a detailed representation of the depths and shapes of underwater terrain features. Similar to a topographic map for land, a bathymetric chart uses contour lines, called isobaths, to connect points of equal depth.
