The higher the elevation the lower the pressure.
The lower the elevation the higher the pressure.
The change can be expressesd by the formula:
p = 101325 (1 - 2.25577 10-5 h)5.25588
where
p = air pressure (Pa)
h = altitude above sea level (m)

Is elevation is a factor that affect air pressure?
temperature and humidity
How does a decrease in elevation affect air pressure?
The air pressure rises. When you go higher it lowers. That's why it gets harder to breathe as you elevate.
Is pressure higher at a lower or at a higher elevation?
lower elevation
Does Air pressure increases as elevation increases?
No. It is a negative correlation which means, as the elevation increases the air pressure decreases.
Why does water's boling point decreases with increase in elevation?
At high elevation the pressure is lower and the boiling point depends on this pressure.
What can affect climate?
latitude, elevation, anegetation affect climate
How does elevation affect settlement patterns?
what is it
What is potential pressure?
the pressure of water measured relative to the atmospheric pressure at the same elevation.
How does pressure change when you increase elevation?
Pressure drops as you go up.
Where is pressure the greatest in the atmosphere?
The troposphere. Pressure decreases as elevation increases.
What is elevation above sea level?
Pressure
What decreases as elevation increases?
Air Pressure.
