What is the air pressure in Taizhou?

Usually, the air pressure near the ground is about 10 10 hectopascals, and it is usually 400-500 hectopascals at high altitude. If the air pressure is around 1000 hectopascals, it is near-surface air pressure, and if it is around 500, it is high-altitude air pressure.

influencing factor

Atmospheric pressure is related to altitude, atmospheric temperature and atmospheric density, and generally decreases exponentially with altitude. The air pressure changes every day and every year. In a year, the air pressure in winter is higher than that in summer. In a day, the air pressure has a maximum value and a minimum value, which appear at 9 ~ 10 and 15 ~ 16 respectively, and the second high value and the second low value appear at 2 1 ~ 22 and 3 ~ 4 respectively. The daily variation of air pressure is small, generally 0. 1 ~ 0.4 kPa, and decreases with the increase of latitude.

The change of air pressure is closely related to wind and weather, so it is an important meteorological factor. The commonly used units of air pressure are Pa, mmHg and millibar. The conversion relationship between them is:100pa =1mbar ≈ 3/4 mm mercury column height. Commonly used instruments for measuring atmospheric pressure in meteorological observation include mercury barometer, empty box barometer and barometer. When the temperature is 0℃ and the pressure is 760mm, the standard atmospheric pressure is first measured by Italian scientist Torricelli.
