Isothermal Equilibrium

</dt>
The state of an atmosphere at rest, uninfluenced by any external agency, in which the conduction of heat from one part to another has, after a sufficient length of time, produced a uniform temperature throughout its entire mass. Also called conductive equilibrium. See diffusive equilibrium, isothermal atmosphere. [[/a>|/a> ]]
