Annotation

The generation of acoustic-gravity waves and their propagation in the Earth’s atmosphere is analyzed numerically on the basis of a computer model of the stratified atmosphere with dissipation. Atmospheric and ionospheric wavelike disturbances from different surface sources such as earthquakes, explosions, seiches, temperature heating, and tsunamis are studied.
