TLDR
One-dimensional waves in fluids as discussed by the authors were used to describe sound waves and water waves in the literature, as well as the internal wave and the water wave in fluids, and they can be classified into three classes: sound wave, water wave, and internal wave.

Asymptotic solutions and spectral theory of linear wave equations

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the application of linear wave propagation in solar and geophysical fluid dynamimics can be found, with particular reference to Lighthill's method for obtaining the asymptotic functional form of the solution of scalar wave equations with constant coefficients.

Periodic traveling water waves with isobaric streamlines

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that in water of finite depth, there are no periodic traveling waves with the property that the pressure in the underlying fluid flow is constant along streamlines.

Insights into explosive activity at closely-spaced eruptive vents using infrasound signals: Example of Mt. Etna 2008 eruption

TL;DR: In this paper, an eruptive fissure opened on Mount Etna's eastern flank feeding both explosive activity and lava effusion from multiple vents for about 14 months, and infrasound recordings from a 4 station-sparse network allowed tracking of the explosive activity in terms of location and dynamics.

Application of generalized finite difference method to propagation of nonlinear water waves in numerical wave flume

TL;DR: In this paper, a meshless numerical wave flume is formed by combining the generalized finite difference method (GFDM), the Runge-Kutta method, the semi-Lagrangian technique, the ramping function and the sponge layer to efficiently analyze the propagation of nonlinear water waves.
