Isobars
Isobars are curvy lines depicted on maps which indicate the amount or pressure that is put on a specific area of the world. The map above can also be seen as a pressure chart formed by the iso bars. The closer the isobars are to each other the stronger the wind pressure will be, but as the isobars veer further away from each other the lighter the wind will be.
