By Albert_LanBarometric Pressure. Air is made up of molecules of gases (nitrogen, oxygen, argon, water vapor, etc.). Because these gases have mass, air is pulled toward the center of Earth by gravity. Barometric pressure is the weight (force) of the air pushing on a unit of surface area of the ground.
By JimsAtmospheric pressure. What causes atmospheric pressure?. The atmosphere is made up of a mixture of gases It is like a deep sea of air which surrounds the Earth The moving particles in air exert pressure in all directions. Does the atmosphere change?.
