You look at a weather map and see that you are in an area of closely spaced isobars with the center just to your east, but the spacing of the isobars increases to the west of you. The most common form of the pressure gradient formula is PG = PD/D. You can think of this as how much the air pressure (at a particular height, or level, in the atmosphere) changes as you travel from one specific location to another. copyright 2003-2023 Study.com. from center of a low pressure system to cardiovascular endurance in elementary school children.
