日本語の意味

（気象学）潜在温度が一定の面、すなわち定温面 / （物理学）等エントロピー状態または系（エントロピーが一定の状態やシステム）

Meteorologists tracked the isentrope as it sloped upward across the frontal boundary.

気象学者たちは前線境界を越えて斜めに上昇する一定のポテンシャル温度の面を追跡した。

意味（1）

(meteorology) A surface of constant potential temperature

意味（2）

(physics) An isentropic state or system

In order to avoid confusion with the earth's surface we may refer to an isentropic surface as an isentrope. The motion of air can best be resolved into motion along the isentrope which requires no heat, and motion across the isentrope which requires the supply or loss of heat by radiation otherwise.
