Atmospheric air pressure decreases with increasing altitude.

Recorded sources
7 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that atmospheric air pressure decreases with increasing altitude?

Yes. A reference encyclopedia and an atmospheric-modeling textbook state directly that atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude, and several other sources note low pressure at high altitude in passing. The claim is settled in full by the direct statements.

Verdict: SUPPORTED · 7 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
