Why is atmospheric pressure greatest at the surface of earth?

Atmospheric pressure is greatest at the surface of the Earth because there is more air above pushing down. As you move higher in the atmosphere, there is less air above, resulting in lower atmospheric pressure. Gravity also plays a role in compressing the air molecules closer to the Earth's surface, increasing the pressure.
