Barometric pressure, also known as atmospheric pressure, refers to the pressure exerted by the air layers that make up the Earth’s atmosphere. Heavy, dense pockets of air result in relatively higher pressure, while the rising of warm, surface-level air causes lower pressure. Atmospheric pressure affects the weather as high and low-pressure systems move around the […]

5.1 Air temperature
As outlined in the chapter on water temperature, temperature is a physical property indicating relative hotness or coldness. In the context of meteorology, it is the measure of the thermal energy in the atmosphere that comes from molecular vibrations of air, which primarily consists of nitrogen, oxygen, and argon molecules, as well as trace amounts […]
