Isohyets



An isohyets is a line joining points of equal precipitation on a map. It is often called a contour line. An isohyets function is a function of two variables and there is a curve along which the function has a constant value. The lines are curved or straight lines on a map. An example would show hills and valleys and steepness of slopes.
