Scientific paper

It is shown that small, local disturbances of entropy in the atmosphere may
give rise to "sound" waves propagating with a velocity which depends on the
amplitude ratio of the local relative variations of temperature and volume.
This velocity is much smaller than the mean molecular velocity and the usual,
adiabatic sound velocity.
