3. Barometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barometer

   Barometers and pressure altimeters (the most basic and common type of altimeter) are essentially the same instrument, but used for different purposes. An altimeter is intended to be used at different levels matching the corresponding atmospheric pressure to the altitude , while a barometer is kept at the same level and measures subtle pressure ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_forecasting

   Measurements of barometric pressure and the pressure tendency (the change of pressure over time) have been used in forecasting since the late 19th century. [66] The larger the change in pressure, especially if more than 3.5 hPa (2.6 mmHg), the larger the change in weather can be expected.

5. Atmospheric pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure

   Atmospheric pressure, also known as air pressure or barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth. The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa (1,013.25 hPa ), which is equivalent to 1,013.25 millibars , [ 1 ] 760 mm Hg , 29.9212 inches Hg , or 14.696 psi .

7. Barograph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barograph

   The changing height of the mercury in the barometer was recorded on a continuously moving photosensitive surface. [5] By 1847, a sophisticated temperature-compensation mechanism was also employed. Ronalds’ barograph was utilised by the UK Meteorological Office for many years to assist in weather forecasting and the machines were supplied to ...
