yes, the higher the altitude the thinner the air, thus the less oxygen in the air.
Denver would be expected to have cooler temperatures compared to Kansas City due to its higher altitude. This is because the higher altitude leads to lower atmospheric pressure and thinner air, which results in cooler temperatures.
Altitude differences
Both are higher them Denver with Santa Fe at 7,260 feet and Albuquerque at 5,312 feet above sea level.
lower average temperatures
No. Latitude and longitude are angles.
the altitude. At higher altitude it is harder to breather because the air is thinner.
Mexico City is warmer than Denver because Mexico City is located at a lower altitude, around 7,200 feet above sea level, while Denver is situated at a higher altitude around 5,280 feet. The higher altitude in Denver leads to cooler temperatures due to the lower air pressure and thinner atmosphere. Additionally, Mexico City's proximity to the equator contributes to its warmer climate compared to Denver.
Phoenix is situated at approximately 1,100 feet (335 meters) above sea level, while Denver is known as the "Mile High City," sitting at about 5,280 feet (1,609 meters). This significant difference in elevation means that Denver has thinner air, which can lead to decreased oxygen levels and potential breathing difficulties for those not acclimated to high altitudes. In contrast, Phoenix's lower elevation offers a more typical breathing experience, making it easier for most people to engage in physical activities without the same level of altitude-related stress.
5280 Feet, hence the nickname "The mile high city"
I think what you meant was altitude..Denver's altitude is 5,280 feet. As you ascend to higher altitudes, atmospheric pressure decreases, the air is thinner and less oxygen is available. It is also colder, drier and the ultraviolet rays from the sun are stronger. Each of these changes may have unpleasant effects on your body.http://www.universityparent.com/du/2009/05/18/denver-climate-and-high-altitude-health-tips

the air is super thin cuz of the high altitude
