The Alma-Ata neutron monitor located at a height of 3340 m above sea level was used to study cosmic-ray variations due to atmospheric waves. Peaks with periods of 1 and 2 hr in the variation spectrum were found which were also present in electron-density fluctuation spectra at heights of 70-100 km. The fluctuation spectra of both cosmic rays and the electron density were shifted to the low-frequency range with increasing time after sunrise or sunset. It is concluded that the spectral components of the cosmic-ray intensity variations may be due to ionospheric waves excited by the solar terminator.
