The troposphere is the layer of the earth's atmosphere with the highest air pressure.
The troposphere is the layer of the earth's atmosphere with the highest air pressure. This is because the troposphere is the layer closest to the Earth's surface. As a result, the air is quite dense in the troposphere. As pressure is directly proportional to density, it means that the atmospheric pressure would be greatest in the troposphere.
About 90% of the atmospheric mass is in the troposphere. You can tell because 90% of the pressure increase occurs in the troposphere. Pressure goes from zero in space to 100 mb at the tropopause to 1000 mb at the surface.
Air pressure decreases as you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere. This is because the weight of the air above is less in the stratosphere, leading to lower air pressure at higher altitudes.
The troposphere does not get hotter with increasing altitude because of the way temperature and pressure interact in the atmosphere. As altitude increases, air pressure decreases, leading to a decrease in temperature — a phenomenon known as the environmental lapse rate. The troposphere is heated from below by the Earth's surface, which absorbs solar radiation and warms the air directly in contact with it. Therefore, while the surface is warm, the upper layers of the troposphere remain cooler.

about how low is the troposphere
The troposphere is the layer of the earth's atmosphere with the highest air pressure.
The pressure range of the troposphere typically extends from about 1,000 hPa (hectopascals) at sea level to around 250 hPa at the tropopause. The pressure decreases with altitude due to the decreasing density of air molecules.

The pressure is highest in the troposphere, the layer closest to the Earth's surface. As altitude increases, the pressure decreases in the troposphere due to the decreasing density of gases in the atmosphere.
