Is it possible to interpolate between two lines of equal concentration or between a maximum and a line?


Interpolation depends upon the gradient relative to the size of the concentration grid. If it is strong and there are only a few cells between contours then there won't be much spatial error in the interpolation. If the gradients are weak and there are many cells between contours the spatial error can be large.
