[An isomer] is similar to an isohyet, a line that connects points of the same total precipitation for a given time period or for a particular storm. Isomers and isohyets generally will not coincide. In regions with more than one rainy season isomeric analysis is useful in establishing the relative importance of each rainfall regime. 4, record 1, English, - isomer
