This chapter deals with the underlying mathematics of atmospheric waves. Gravity waves occur between any stable layers of fluids that differ in density. When the fluid boundary is disturbed, buoyancy forces try to restore the equilibrium.

The prospect of studying atmospheric gravity waves with balloon lidars [PDF]
Long duration balloons are ideal platforms to study atmospheric gravity waves with remote sensing Rayleigh lidar instruments. Using a laser beam and receiving telescope, atmospheric density and temperature are sounded throughout the stratosphere and ...

We study the atmospheric structure in response to the propagation of gravity waves under nonisothermal (nonzero vertical temperature gradient), wind-shear (nonzero vertical zonal/meridional wind speed gradients), and dissipative (nonzero molecular ...

Successfully Simulating Atmospheric Gravity Waves
These waves are key to moving energy from the troposphere to the thermosphere, but until now they haven’t been well described at high altitudes in computer models.

Daily time series of zonal‐mean zonal wind (m·s−1) at 10 hPa and 60° N from 1950 to 2021 from the ERA5 reanalysis. This shows huge variability in some seasons and very little in others. We provide evidence that high‐level observations, radiosonde and satellite, are more important during the extended winter season with its very large variability ...

The phenomenology, generation and associated dynamics of short period seiche oscillations observed along the northern coast of the Maltese Islands are studied from a set of densely sampled, long term hydro-meteorological observations made at a permanent ...

Mirages with atmospheric gravity waves [PDF]
The temperature inversions that produce superior mirages are capable of supporting gravity (buoyancy) waves of very low frequency and long wavelength. This paper describes the optics of single mode gravity waves that propagate in a four-layer atmosphere.

We document the protocol and first results from the first ever coordinated multimodel variable‐resolution experiment set with refinement over the polar regions. We find that the refinement generally yields model‐dependent effects. The most consistent improvement is an amelioration of the upper‐level cold bias in the polar regions that translates into ...

A review of atmospheric gravity waves and travelling ionospheric disturbances: 1982-1995
Recent investigations of atmospheric gravity waves (AGW) and travelling ionospheric disturbances (TID) in the Earth's thermosphere and ionosphere are reviewed.

Observational study of the atmospheric gravity waves in the lower solar atmosphere
ABSTRACT The solar chromosphere exhibits a variety of waves originating from the photosphere and deeper layers, causing oscillations at different heights with distinct frequencies. This study identifies and analyse atmospheric gravity waves (AGWs) and acoustic waves at various height pairs within the solar atmosphere utilizing H$\alpha$,
