Summary: The text presents a treatment of the fundamental theory of waves. Starting with an elementary treatment of the basic wave concept, specific wave phenomena are treated including: surface gravity waves, internal gravity waves, lee waves, waves in the presence of rotation, geostrophic adjustment, quasi-geostrophic waves and potential vorticity, wave-mean flow interaction, unstable waves. Each wave topic is used to introduce either a new technique or concept in general wave theory. The book contains numerous end-of-chapter exercises.
