isobariska

Isobariska is a term used in meteorology and atmospheric science to denote concepts, measurements, and representations associated with constant atmospheric pressure, particularly in languages that form adjectives from izobara such as izobarska in South Slavic languages. In English, the corresponding term is isobaric, and the noun isobar refers to lines of equal pressure on a weather map.

Etymology and usage notes suggest that isobariska derives from the root meaning equal pressure (iso/izobara) with the adjectival suffix -ska. In many languages, the standard form is izobarska or izobarsko, while some transliterations render the form as isobariska. The term is most often encountered in meteorological texts discussing pressure-related phenomena or charting methods.

In practical use, isobariska concepts underpin the construction and interpretation of isobaric charts and analyses. Weather maps routinely display lines of equal pressure (isobars) to infer wind patterns and atmospheric stability. Isobaric analysis also involves examining data at fixed pressure levels, such as the 500 hPa or 850 hPa levels, to study the structure of the troposphere, temperature advection, and moisture fields at that depth.

Notes: while isobariska appears in some linguistic variants, the more common English terminology remains isobaric and isobar. In regional meteorological literature, readers may encounter izobarska or izobarsko as the preferred form.
