About this document
Atmospheric Pressure and Weather Systems by moxlinde is a document available to read on EtoBox.
- The document discusses key concepts relating to atmospheric pressure and temperature. - It describes three main state variables that characterize the atmosphere: air pressure, air temperature, and air density. Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude from sea level. - There are two main air pressure systems - cyclones (low pressure) and anticyclones (high pressure) - which influence wind patterns and weather. Cyclones bring rising air and potential precipitation while anticyclones bring
