The barometer is the scientific instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure, also known as barometric pressure. A barometer works by balancing the weight of the mercury in a glass tube against the pressure of the outside air. As air pressure increases, the mercury rises, and as air pressure decreases, the mercury falls. The level of mercury in the tube provides a precise measure of air pressure.
