Change chart
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-004247
A meteorological map that displays the change in a specific atmospheric variable over a set period of time. These charts depict isallobars (lines of equal pressure change) or isallotherms (lines of equal temperature change) to highlight areas of rapid atmospheric modification. A 24-hour pressure change chart, for example, shows the net change in sea-level pressure in millibars from the previous day.
