Answer:

It decreases

Explanation:

The air pressure tends to be higher on the places with the lowest altitudes, and lower at the places with higher altitudes. Basically, the air pressure is the wight of the air, and since the air is denser and heavier at the lower altitudes, the air pressure is higher, while on the higher altitudes the air is less dense, thus the air pressure is lower. So in practice we can expect that the air pressure in a low valley will be higher than the air pressure at the top of higher mountain.

Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second
ki77a [65]
To answer that question, we don't care what the highest and lowest
levels of the wave are, or how far apart they are.  We only need to be
able to identify the highest point on the wave, and keep track of how
often those pass by us.

You said it takes 4 seconds for a complete wave to pass by.
Through the sheer power of intellect, I'm able to take that information
and calculate that  1/4  of the wave passes by in 1 second.

There's your frequency . . .  1/4 per second, or  0.25 Hz.
