In this case, I am talking about atmospheric pressure. Pressure is not something we ordinarily dwell on before or during a flight. But if you fly in a location where the mountain peaks are plentiful, ...

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - The weight of the air surrounding us is known as barometric or atmospheric pressure. Low and high barometric pressure can impact our bodies differently; factors such as ...

Barometric pressure sensors measure atmospheric pressure in a variety of applications, providing crucial data for weather forecasting, altitude measurement, and environmental monitoring. In the field ...

Clouds are important for the Earth's energy balance because they interact with radiation in different ways: On one hand, low clouds reflect incoming solar radiation and thus cool the Earth through a ...

Small changes in atmospheric pressure can start a landslide in certain weather conditions. Understanding why will help us to assess which slopes are at most risk of failing. Just over a decade ago, ...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Do you frequently wake up with a sinus headache, migraine, or joint pain just days before or on the day it rains in your area? If so, you’re not alone. And there’s a scientific ...

Is air rewriting the rules of climate science? NASA’s announcement last week of an atmospheric shift over North America is generating heated debate among climate scientists and meteorologists. It’s ...

Climate change has tripled the frequency of atmospheric wave events linked to extreme summer weather in the last 75 years, a new study has found. It may explain why long-range computer forecasts keep ...
