What is the air pressure at sea level called?
Sea level pressure, sometimes as mean sea level pressure.
Is sea level pressure the same as air pressure?
Assuming you are talking about air pressure, atmospheric pressure is created by the weight of the air resting against the earth. the higher up you go, the less air stacked on top of itself, and the pressure is less, until there is no more air at all (space). The pressure of air at sea level is relatively the same around the world because of all the water flows to the same level. this obviously changes with storms and hurricanes - as those move some of the air out of the way. So if you were to go below sea level, there would be more air on top of you, and the pressure would be higher. In death valley (well below sea level) the atmospheric pressure is much higher than at sea level. To answer the question, No, pressure is not negative below sea level. It is greater than at sea level.
How much air pressure is on you if i'm below sea level?
Below sea level atmospheric pressure increases with depth. Air pressure at sea level is about 14.7 psia. Air pressure below sea level would be slightly higher.
Where is the air pressure greater-at sea level or on a mountaintop?
Air pressure is Greater at sea level.Atmospheric pressure is higher at sea level. There is more atmosphere on top of the observer at that point, so the pressure is higher.
Is atmospheric pressure higher on a mountain or sea level?
The answer is sea level. Because atmospheric pressure decreases when altitude increases
Can sea-level pressure and station pressure be the same?
Yes, if the station is situated at sea level.
How does sea level pressure differ from station pressure?
Station Pressure is the actual pressure the station records, however this isn't really used in meteorology as there is no comparsion due to elevation, therefore for a synoptic look, Station Pressure is converted to Sea Level Pressure.
Can station pressure ever exceed sea level pressure?
Yes
What is the air pressure at sea level called?
Sea level pressure, sometimes as mean sea level pressure.
The measurement of air pressure at sea level is called?
Sea level pressure.
How does the atmospheric pressure at altitudes sea level compare with atmospheric pressure at sea level?
the atmospheric pressure below sea level is highter (novanet)

It is greater.
What are the three unit of pressure equal to atmospheric sea level?
A not-commonly-used measurement is 'atmosphere'. One atmosphere is the average pressure at sea-level: 101.325 kPa, 1013.25 mbar, 29.921 inches of mercury (inHg) or 760 millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
