I guess that the atmosphere would change in terms of depth if the planets temperature changed enough.

Where is the Atmosphere pressure highest on Mars?
Like on earth, atmosphere pressure is higher where elevation is lowest. The depth of Valleys and Impact craters, with depth of up 8000 meters, have the thickest atmosphere.
Why does velocity of water change with depth?
The primary change is of pressure, increasing at 1 Bar per 10 metres of depth; but in the oceans, the temperature and salinity also alter in subtle ways.
How much air mass needed to raise Mars' atmosphere to Earth's atmospheric pressure?
It would need around 4x1018 kg of air to raise Mars' atmosphere to earth's atmospheric pressure. The answer is formulated under general pressure-depth relation assuming ratio of atmosphere depth is very small to the planet's diameter. P = m.g/A P = pressure = 101300 Pascal at earth's sea level m = mass of air [=] kg g = Mars gravity = 3.7 m/s2 A = surface area of Mars [=] m2
What feature separates the rocky planets from the gas planets?
Depth of the atmosphere. Gas planets have the thickest and largest of atmospheres. Below gas planets atmospheres are pools of hydrogen or in some cases volatile ices that form in a giant ocean above the surface. It's estimated that Jupiter's rocky surface is only about the size of three Earths but the bloated atmosphere makes for most of the planet.
Does a tsunamis speed change based on water depth?

What are the surface materials on neptune?
As a gas planet, Neptune does not have a definite surface. It has an atmosphere of hydrogen, helium, and methane that gradually becomes denser with depth.
What are the surfaces of the gas giants?
When it comes to determining a gas giant's volume, diameter, etc., the "surface" is the depth in the planet's atmosphere at which the air pressure equals one atmosphere (the same air pressure as in the earth's atmosphere at sea level).
What does 10 meters of depth equal to how many atmosphere of pressure?
10 meters of water depth equals about 1 atmosphere.
Where is the Atmosphere pressure highest on Mars?
Like on earth, atmosphere pressure is higher where elevation is lowest. The depth of Valleys and Impact craters, with depth of up 8000 meters, have the thickest atmosphere.
Why does pressure change change with elevation and depth?
Pressure drops at higher elevations because of the decrease in the weight of air. Under the water, pressure climbs with increasing depth because of the combined weight of the water and that of the atmosphere.
Does Uranus have an atmospere?
Yes, Its a gas giant, so it has thick atmosphere that just gets thicker with depth. The upper layers are mainly Hydrogen and Helium, but there is also a bit of Methane which give the planet its greenish hue. The composition changes as you go deeper into the planet.
How deep in the water is one atmosphere?
4 atmospheres is about 135.6 feet of water depth.
How does the atmosphere vary with altitude?
How does liquid pressure vary with depth
The depth of the dip in a star's brightness due to the transit of a planet depends most directly on?
the planet's size

How does liquid pressure vary with depth
Which atmospheric layer is the troposphere?
It is the lowest section of our atmosphere, with an avg. depth of 11km (7miles). Contains 75% of atmosphere's mass.
Why is pressure higher at the depth of A meters in the ocean than it is at a depth of 150 kilometer in the atmosphere?
Because water is denser than air.
