Journal ArticleDOI
Ionospheric effects of magneto-acoustic-gravity waves: Dispersion relation
TL;DR: In this paper, a general dispersion relation including the effects of the Earth's magnetic field was derived for magneto-acoustic-gravity waves in the atmosphere, which can be used in a general atmospheric ray tracing program to calculate the propagation of magnetoacoustic gravity waves from the ground to the ionosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonperturbative ocean acoustic tomography inversion
R. Michael Jones,T. M. Georges +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for estimating range-averaged sound speed and sound slowness profiles from single-slice tomographic travel-time measurements is demonstrated, which directly yields the range average of the equivalent symmetric profile and the asymmetry of the sound channel at source and receiver.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonperturbative ocean acoustic tomography inversion of 1000-km pulse propagation in the Pacific Ocean
TL;DR: A nonperturbative inversion was performed of acoustic tomography measurements made in the northeastern Pacific Ocean in July 1989, in which acoustic transmissions from a 250-Hz broadband source located near the sound-channel axis were recorded at a long vertical array of hydrophones 1000 km away as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheric gravity wave ray tracing: Ordinary and extraordinary waves
TL;DR: In this article, a general three-dimensional ray tracing computer program is used to calculate internal gravity-wave ray paths in the atmosphere using a general four-dimensional equation to specify the initial values of the wave vector at the source.
Journal ArticleDOI
The rotation problem
TL;DR: In this article, a simple saddlepoint approximation to a path-integral calculation for a perfect fluid cosmology is presented, and it is shown that only cosmologies with an average present relative rotation rate smaller than about 1.5 radians per year could contribute significantly to a measurement of relative rotation in our universe.
