Acoustic-gravity waves in the earth’s atmosphere (review)

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

We present the modern theory of small-amplitude acoustic-gravity waves (AGWs) in the Earth’s atmosphere. Main attention is paid to the propagation and radiation of AGWs by different sources. We also consider problems of their dissipation, stability, and interaction with the ionospheric plasma. Basic methods of detecting the wave processes in the upper atmosphere in the AGW frequency range are briefly discussed. Experimental data on atmospheric inhomogeneities are compared with theoretical findings.
