Scientific paper

A review is given of the properties of waves in atmospheres, with particular emphasis on the variation of amplitude and phase with altitude for propagating waves and the waveforms of standing modes. The cases dealt with concern waves under the combined influences of gravity and compressibility, and examine the effects of temperature gradients in a non-isothermal atmospheric model; external magnetic field, either vertical or horizontal; and dissipation by viscosity and electrical resistance. The results are relevant to the assessment of atmospheric wave growth and shock formation, and to the calculation of heating functions describing the deposition of wave energy.
