Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010009

The portion of the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from 30 to 300 megahertz (MHz). These frequencies are primarily used for short-range communication, including air traffic control and marine radio. VHF signals typically travel in a line-of-sight path, making them suitable for local broadcasting and communication within the atmosphere.
