Anisotropic (meaning non-isotropic) is usually used to describe a directionally dependent phenomenon.

... anisotropic radiation has different intensities in different directions, and an anisotropic field exerts different actions depending on how the test particle is oriented. Magnetic susceptibility or electrical conductivity, for example, can be anisotropic in certain materials, as is the cosmic microwave background radiation. Wood is an anisotropic material as its strength and expansion due to humidity are different in the longitudinal, radial, and tangential directions. See also anisotropic etch, and liquid crystal.
