ABOUT ALTITUDE AND AIR PRESSURE
MEASUREMENTS
Altimeter
Generally, air pressure and temperature decrease as altitude increases. This
watch bases its altitude measurements on International Standard Atmos-
phere (ISA) values stipulated by the International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO), which define relationships between altitude, air pressure, and tem-
perature.
There are two standard methods of expressing altitude: Absolute altitude
and relative altitude. Absolute altitude expresses an absolute height above
sea level. Relative altitude expresses the difference between the height of
two different places.
Barometer
Barometric pressure indicates changes in the atmosphere, and by monitoring
these changes you can predict the weather with reasonable accuracy. Rising
barometric pressure indicates good weather, while falling pressure indicates
deteriorating weather conditions.
The barometric pressures that you see in the newspaper and on the TV
weather report are measurements corrected to values measured at 0 m sea
level.
