Oscillations of the earth's outer atmosphere and micropulsations

Using Maxwell's equations of electrodynamics and the linearized fundamental equation of hydrodynamics neglecting all but the ponderomotive force, the two differential equations characterizing toroidal and poloidal modes of oscillations are obtained. Neglecting the coupling between these modes t...
