Entry: Minimum central pressure
URI: https://terra-vocabulary.org/ncl/FAIR-Incubator/earthsciencevariables/c_443880e9
The atmospheric pressure at the center of a high or low. It is the highest pressure in a high and the lowest pressure in a low, referring to the sea level pressure of the system. In a hurricane, a lower central pressure create a stronger gradient from outside to inside the system. The stronger this pressure gradient is, the greater the maximum wind speeds around the eye wall.
