Air Pressure
Altitude
When a body is at a higher altitude, preasure decreases. Meanwhile when a body is at a lower altitude, pressure increases. When ascending, air expands, which is why the higher the altitude, the less dense is the air

Humidity :star:
In places where there is more humidity, there is less pressure. In places where there is less humidity, there is more pressure.This phenomenon is relate to height.
-
Examples:
Moisture in the air is due to water vapor that is present in the atmosphere. The vapor comes from the evaporation of the seas and oceans, rivers, lakes, plants and other living things
Measuring instrument:
The degree or quantity of air humidity is measured with the hygrometer, when the hygrometer shows 100% it is said that the air contains the maximum humidity.
-
Characteristic: The humidity of the air is due to the water vapor that is present in the atmosphere.

Temperature
Temperature is a quantity referred to the notion of heat measurable by a thermometer
Hot air has less density than cold and tends to rise, when the air heats up it becomes lighter and the pressure decreases
At low temperatures, the air cools and the density increases creating high pressure, although this varies depending on the geographical location.
in the ecudorian zones temperature is high and atmospheric pressure is low
In Template zones, temperature varies all year long.
Example
In polar areas, high pressures throughout the year
