Hey Lyot,
Well, the difference between LT & AT as described above is going to stay the same. But as mentioned above, LT is better to focus on than AT. In regards to the graph, the LT is shown by that sharp rise in the line (I think around 280 watts in your graph if I remember correctly?). Basically, when you're below that point, your body can clear lactate faster than it is being accumulated. When you're above that point, lactate accumulates faster than it can be removed and starts to build up.
Check out this
link. It's a web page that has a pretty good description of what you're looking for I think. Some good examples too. Hopefully this helps.
