Unit Information

Millibar (mbar)

Definition

The millibar (symbol: mbar) is a metric unit of pressure equal to one-thousandth of a bar. It is exactly equal to 100 pascals (1 hectopascal).

Current Use

Millibars are primarily used in meteorology to report atmospheric pressure. Most weather maps use millibars to denote areas of high and low pressure.

Torr (torr)

Definition

The torr (symbol: Torr) is a unit of pressure based on an absolute scale, defined as exactly 1/760 of a standard atmosphere. It is approximately equal to the pressure exerted by a millimeter of mercury.

Current Use

The torr is frequently used in high-vacuum physics and medicine (for blood pressure measurements, though often still referred to as mmHg).
