A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, or the pressure exerted by the weight of the Earth's atmosphere above a particular location.

As Jupiter has no surface, the base of its atmosphere is usually considered to be the point at which atmospheric pressure is equal to , or ten times surface pressure on Earth.

Note that the boiling point of 100.0 C is at a pressure of 0.101325 MPa (1 atm), which is the average atmospheric pressure.

The airspeed is derived from the difference between the ram air pressure from the pitot tube, or stagnation pressure, and the static pressure.

For a vapor bubble to expand, the temperature must be high enough that the vapor pressure exceeds the ambient pressure (the atmospheric pressure, primarily).

For such a model atmosphere, the pressure declines exponentially with increasing altitude.

Compressed air is air kept under a pressure that is greater than atmospheric pressure.

The average air pressure at sea level is , with little variance throughout the year.

At atmospheric pressure, the carbon dioxide gas escapes very slowly from the supersaturated liquid.

The fire that killed the Apollo 1 crew in a launch pad test spread so rapidly because the capsule was pressurized with pure but at slightly more than atmospheric pressure, instead of the normal pressure that would be used in a mission.

And, of equal importance is, we test ARES in the Earth's atmosphere, at 100,000 feet, which is comparable to the density and pressure of the atmosphere on Mars where we'll fly.

At the elevated pressure in the bottle, more carbon dioxide can dissolve in water than at atmospheric pressure.

Pressure Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area that is always applied perpendicularly to a surface by the surrounding gas.

The is removed after combustion of fossil fuels, but before the flue gas is expanded to atmospheric pressure.

This concept is familiar from weather maps, whose isobars show the direction of geostrophic flow in the atmosphere.

When surface temperature drops, eventually reaching the dew point, atmospheric water vapor condenses to form small droplets on the surface.

The liquid air, which takes up one thousandth of the volume of the gas, can be kept for a long time in a large vacuum flask at atmospheric pressure.

The enthalpy of sublimation, or heat of sublimation, is the heat required to sublime one mole of the substance at a given combination of temperature and pressure, usually standard temperature and pressure (STP).

Further, where an atmosphere is less dense than 0.006 Earth atmospheres, water cannot exist in liquid form as the required atmospheric pressure, 4.56 mm Hg (608 Pa) (0.18 inch Hg), does not occur.

One, carbon dioxide reduction (CDR), involves removing from the atmosphere the main gas that is causing global warming.

The atmospheric mass is 93 times that of Earth's atmosphere, whereas the pressure at the planet's surface is about 92 times that at Earth's surface a pressure equivalent to that at a depth of nearly 1 kilometre under Earth's oceans.

A key difference compared to other biogeochemical cycles is that because of its low molecular weight hydrogen can leave Earth's atmosphere.

The French mathematician Blaise Pascal reasoned that if the column of mercury was supported by air then the column ought to be shorter at higher altitude where the air pressure is lower.

The overall pressure ratio of the compression system is 24.3.

The main objective of the workshop was to bring together the NAP implementation process and the process of scientific research and meteorological monitoring at national and subregional levels.

The amount of pressure on the tissue is based on the size of the area of the contact the smaller the point of pressure, the greater effect it will have on the tissue.

In this context, emphasis is being placed on the development of solar energy and the distribution of improved stoves, so as to reduce pressure on forest resources, which constitute the main domestic energy source for the greater part of the population of the region.

With the lowest central pressure of the 2012 hurricane season, Sandy may have caused up to 20 billion in damages, making it one of the costliest superstorms in history.

Agitators for reform will continue to push. Regime loyalists will continue to push back.

The force pushing the water towards the low pressure region is called the pressure gradient force.

For instance they are serving as air traffic controllers and as transport pilots in the air force.

Atmospheric physics is the application of physics to the study of the atmosphere.

The troposphere (lower atmosphere) is the densest layer of the atmosphere.

The pressure gradient between this region and the ambient pressure will propel matter toward the low pressure area.

The key challenge for Egyptian revolutionaries is to sustain that unity, establish a leadership coalition, translate their chants into concrete demands, and maintain the pressure during implementation.

Methane molecules account for 2.3 of the atmosphere by molar fraction below the methane cloud deck at the pressure level of 1.3 bar (130 kPa) this represents about 20 to 30 times the carbon abundance found in the Sun.

The feedstock to an FCC is usually that portion of the crude oil that has an initial boiling point of 340 C or higher at atmospheric pressure and an average molecular weight ranging from about 200 to 600 or higher.

The mitral valve opens when the pressure in the left atrium is greater than the pressure in the left ventricle.

Only when you want the pressure to be released, make an upward gesture, like this, but only when you want the pressure to be released.

The ICAO defines the International Standard Atmosphere, which is the model of the standard variation of pressure, temperature, density, and viscosity with altitude in the Earth's atmosphere, and is used to reduce a station pressure to sea level pressure.
