AltitudeThe process of adapting to the decrease in oxygen concentration at a specific altitude. A number of changes must take place for the body to operate with decreased oxygen. These changes include increasing the depth of respiration; increasing the pressure in the pulmonary arteries, forcing blood into portions of the lung that are normally not used at [..]

AltitudeAltitude sickness occurs at high altitude. So what is high altitude?Altitude is defined on the following scale:High altitude: 8,000 - 12,000 feet (2,438 - 3,658 meters);Very high altitude: 12,000 - 18,000 feet (3,658 - 5,487 meters); andExtremely high altitude: 18,000+ feet (5,500+ meters).Most people can go up to 8,000 feet (2,438 meters) with min [..]

AltitudeFirst, find your azimuth. Next, the Altitude (or elevation) is the angle between the Earth's surface (horizon) and the sun, or object in the sky. Altitudes range from -90° (straight down below the horizon, or the nadir) to +90° (straight up above the horizon or the Zenith) and 0° straight at the horizon. definition courtesy of: What Is and S [..]
