air pressure

Atmosphere pressure {air pressure}| depends on temperature, water content, friction, centrifugal force, and flow. Cooler air has higher pressure. Spinning air can have higher pressure. Air with less water has higher pressure. Air blocked by mountains has higher pressure. Air-pressure patterns vary by latitude. High-pressure swirling cells are more near poles and in subtropics. Low-pressure cells are more in temperate zones.
