Waveform

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010161

The graphical representation of a wave's amplitude as a function of time or space. It illustrates the characteristic shape and periodic nature of oscillations, such as those found in atmospheric gravity waves or electromagnetic radiation. Analysis of the waveform reveals key properties including frequency, wavelength, and phase, distinguishing between simple sinusoidal shapes and more complex patterns like sawtooth or square waves.
