In fluid mechanics, the pressure p p\,p at a depth h h\,h in a stationary fluid of uniform density ρ \rho\,ρ is given by p=ρghp = \rho g hp=ρgh, where g g\,g is the acceleration due to gravity.

What are the SI base units of the pressure gradient with respect to depth, dpdh\displaystyle \frac{\text{d}p}{\text{d}h}dhdp​?
