It consists of various gasses held close to the surface of the Earth by gravity.
Since it consists of gasses it has no structure, but the weight of the upper (all relative) gasses press down on the lower gasses: compressing them. Thus the pressure increases as you get closer to the surface (actually the center of the planet).
