What is atmosphere?
An atmosphere (atm) is a pressure unit equal to mean atmospheric pressure at sea level, approximately 101,325 pascals. It is used as a reference in chemistry, diving tables, and altitude calculations.
What is hectopascal?
A hectopascal is a pressure unit equal to 100 pascals, numerically identical to the millibar. It is the standard unit for atmospheric pressure reports in modern meteorology and aviation weather data.
