  "term": "Geostrophic wind scale",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A graphical tool used on weather maps to estimate the magnitude of the geostrophic wind based on the spacing of isobars. It consists of a series of lines or markings that relate the isobaric spacing to wind speed for a given latitude. This scale is specific to the map projection and the chosen pressure interval between isobars.",
