Internal waves are gravity waves that occur within a fluid medium, typically in oceans or other large bodies of water, but they can also occur in any stratified fluid, such as the atmosphere. These waves propagate along surfaces of different densities, which can be caused by variations in temperature, salinity, or other properties that lead to stratification.
