(Greek: rho) (air density) is the mass per unit volume of
Earth's atmosphere. Air density, like air pressure, decreases with increasing altitude. It also changes with variation in atmospheric pressure, temperature and humidity. At 101.325 kPa (abs) and 15�C, air has a density of approximately 1.225 kg/m� (0.001225 g/cm�, 0.0023769 slug/(cu ft), 0.0765 lb/(cu ft)) according to ISA (International Standard Atmosphere).
Air density is a property used in many branches of science, engineering, and
industry, including aeronautics;[1][2][3] gravimetric analysis;[4] the air- conditioning[5] industry; atmospheric research and meteorology;[6][7][8] agricultural engineering (modeling and tracking of Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere- Transfer (SVAT) models);[9][10][11] and the engineering community that deals with compressed air.[12]
