Toriccelli also went on to develop the mercury barometer, an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. A barometer also monitors variations in atmospheric pressure. As air becomes thinner ...

When a vibrating body moves in air, it creates slight disturbances of the AMBIENT atmospheric pressure. The AMPLITUDE of these pressure variations (that is, their maximum displacement from the ambient ...

Due to its low boiling point and vapor pressure, mercury can exist in gaseous form in the atmosphere ... Spatio-temporal variations and source apportionment, Journal of Hazardous Materials ...

The findings revealed significant seasonal and spatial variations in mercury concentrations ... Due to its low boiling point and vapor pressure, mercury can exist in gaseous form in the atmosphere.
