What effect is at a low altitude?

One effect of being at a low altitude is higher air pressure, which can increase the amount of oxygen available for breathing. This can lead to improved physical performance and reduced risk of altitude sickness.

In the troposphere does the temperature increase or decrease with altitude?

In the troposphere, temperatures decrease with altitude (air pressure), in the effect known as the adiabatic lapse rate (9.8 °C per thousand feet).


Does atmospheric pressure increase with altitude?

No, atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude.
