The lines are isotherms (lines of constant temperature) and isobars (lines of constant pressure)

If ??/?z = 0, the atmosphere is said to be neutral ,or neutrally stratified, and the lapse rate is equal to the dry adiabatic lapse rate (DALR) ? d ~= 10 K km -1 i.e. the temperature decreases by 10 K every km.
