Basile [38]

We have that the sea level pressure for Leh area is 1150mb mathematically given as

Ps= 1150 mb

<h3> Sea level pressure</h3>

Question Parameters:

Ladakh is 800 mb.

<u>assuming </u>that Leh is at an altitude of 3500 m and every 100 m

increase in height with respect to sea level corresponds to 10 mb pressure,

Generally, for 3500m the pressure change will be 350 mb.

Therefore,  here for the sea level <em>pressure</em> we need to add,

Ps=800+350

Ps= 1150 mb
