The weight of the atmosphere is commonly referred to as "atmospheric pressure." It is the force exerted by the weight of air above a given point, typically measured in units such as pascals or millibars. At sea level, atmospheric pressure averages about 1013.25 hPa (hectopascals). This pressure decreases with altitude as the amount of air above decreases.
