gravity wave

Waves that propagate under the influence of buoyancy forces. Gravity waves include surface gravity waves, such as waves on the surface of the ocean, interfacial gravity waves, such as waves at the interface between fresh surface water and underlying salty ocean water, and internal gravity waves which propagate vertically as well as horizontally in density stratified fluid.
