Isocline Hill [SEP] continent
Isocline Hill
Isocline Hill () is a hill in the southern part of the Augen Bluffs, in the Miller Range, Antarctica. The hill rises above the west side of Marsh Glacier and is connected to the Augen Bluffs by a col lower than the height of the hill. It was so named by the Ohio State University Geological Party, 1967–68, because an isoclinal fold is well exposed on the side of the hill.
Isocline
Given a family of curves, assumed to be differentiable, an isocline for that family is formed by the set of points at which some member of the family attains a given slope. The word comes from the Greek words ἴσος (isos), meaning "same", and the κλίνειν, meaning "make to slope". Generally, an isocline will itself have the shape of a curve or the union of a small number of curves.
Isoclines are often used as a graphical method of solving ordinary differential
