How do we compare the pressure measured at different locations?
To compare pressure readings taken at different locations, it is convenient to convert them to a common level, e.g. the sea level. The conversion takes account of a number of factors which affect the weight of air (e.g. temperature, gravity of the Earth). We shall talk about this in greater detail in Part II.
