“…[2] Studies of acoustic gravity waves (AGWs) [Yeh and Liu, 1974;Fritts and Alexander, 2003;McKenzie and Axford, 2000;Stenflo, 1987;Jovanovic et al, 2002] in the Earth's middle atmosphere, in the solar atmosphere, as well as in planetary magnetospheres have been motivated by the need to obtain accurate predictions of the dynamics of the atmosphere under various meteorological conditions, and include the profiles of the density, pressure, and the presence of shear flows in the winds. The AGWs are lowfrequency disturbances associated with the density and velocity perturbations of the atmospheric fluid in the presence of the equilibrium pressure gradient that is maintained by the gravity force.…”
