It stays the same. Temperature has no effect on the rate of nuclear decay.
Pressure does not affect the rate of radioactive decay. That is entirely unaffected by the environment within the nucleus of the atom.
The rate cannot be changed.
This the decay (disintegration) rate.

The rate of decay (activity) of a radioactive isotope is proportional to the number of atoms of the isotope present.

Because radioactive decay happens at a constant rate. Once you figure out the rate of decay, called the half life, you can date stuff.
