A Green's function tensor is derived giving the response of an isothermal atmosphere to small disturbances representing deviations from a state of static stratification. A Hermitian differential operator is first derived that describes an adiabatic flow in a plane-parallel isothermal atmosphere. This operator is inverted using a Fourier transformation to give the Green's function tensor. The inverse Fourier transformation is then carried out for an axisymmetric initial condition. Different properties of g-modes and the range of validity of the anelastic approximation are discussed. An approximate, explicit solution for small bubbles is given.
