On mountain waves
Main Article Content
Abstract
The problems of the upper-boundary condition and the up-stream influence in the propagation of mountain waves are studied. It is demonstrated that the controversy about the first one in the classical theory is redundant, and that under certain circumstances an up-stream influence could exist.
