Source:U.S. Standard Atmosphere, 1976 (PDAS bigtables) (0–1000 km, at 5 km intervals; temperature is linearly interpolated and pressure and density are log-linearly interpolated between grid points.) This idealized horizontally layered model omits real variation from latitude, season, and weather systems; it represents a global annual-average picture only.
