What is a rational elliptic surface?

$\begingroup$

I know what is an elliptic surface, and I also know what is a Rational surface. However I can't find the definition of Rational elliptic surface. Can any one help me?

I read this on the Kulikov classification theorem of the central fibre of a semi-stable family of K3 surfaces.

Thanks.
