The effect of weak non-linearity on vertically propagating internal gravity waves in the atmosphere /

The linear and weakly non-linear limits of two-dimensional gravity waves in an incompressible, inviscid and stably stratified atmosphere are studied. The linear results indicate the growth of waves propagating upward leading to the breakdown of the linear theory. The three-wave resonant interaction...
