Waveguide

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010162

A physical structure that guides waves, such as electromagnetic or acoustic waves, along a specific path. In meteorology, atmospheric layers can act as natural waveguides, trapping and channeling certain types of waves, like sound waves or gravity waves. This phenomenon can influence the propagation distance and intensity of these waves.
