What is a Hectopascal?

The Hectopascal (hPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 100 pascals. It is the international standard unit for measuring atmospheric pressure.

What is a Standard Atmosphere?

The Standard Atmosphere (atm) is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 pascals. It reflects the mean atmospheric pressure at mean sea level.

How to Convert Hectopascal to Standard Atmosphere

To convert Hectopascal to Standard Atmosphere, divide the Hectopascal value by 1013.

atm = hPa ÷ 1013

Manual Calculation Steps
