Pressure with Height: pressuredecreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in theatmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
In mathematical speak that is 9.8°C per 1,000meters. However, if you're in a cloud, or it is snowing/raining, the temperature decreasesby about 3.3°F for every 1,000 feet up you go in elevation. Thus meaning it's a change of 6°C per 1,0000 meters.
Why is it colder at the top of a mountain than at the bottom? There are a few factors that contribute to temperatures being colder at higher altitudes. Air is thinner, or less dense, at higher altitudes because of lower air pressure. Gases at lower pressures are cooler thangases at a higher pressure.
