   • 1962, D. E. Pedgley, “A meso-synoptic analysis of the thunderstorms on 28 August 1958”, in Geophysical Memoirs‎^[1], number 106, UK Meteorological Office, page 23:

     After plotting the amounts in oktas, isonephs were drawn at two-okta intervals. Closely spaced isonephs indicate a sharp edge to a cloud sheet, the edge approximately coinciding with the four-okta isoneph.
