Isopleth

Assessing risks in insulation retrofits using hygrothermal software tools, Heat and moisture transport in internally insulated stone walls, by Joseph Little, Calina Ferraro and Beñat Arregi, published by Historic Environment Scotland in 2015, defines isopleth as a: ‘Contour line (often used in geography) joining points having the same value of some quantity. In the context of mould risk assessment, isopleths can be used to describe mould growth conditions independent of temperature and relative humidity levels’
