= Atmospheric wave
{wiki=Atmospheric_wave}
An atmospheric wave refers to a variation in atmospheric pressure, temperature, or density that propagates through the atmosphere. These waves can take various forms and are often classified based on their characteristics, such as their scale, speed, and the physical processes involved. Some common types of atmospheric waves include: 1. **Sound Waves**: These are pressure waves that travel through the air due to variations in density and pressure. They are mechanical waves that require a medium (like air) to propagate.
