Abstract: A problem of a far field generated by internal gravity waves from an oscillating point source of perturbations that moves in a vertically infinite stratified medium with variable buoyancy. For a simulated quadratic distribution of buoyancy frequencies, analytical solutions of the main boundary-value problem are obtained, expressed through parabolic cylinder functions. Asymptotic solutions constructed in this paper make it possible to describe amplitude-phase characteristics of far fields generated by internal gravity waves in a stratified medium with a variable Brunt–Väiää frequency.

Keywords: stratified medium, internal gravity waves, variable buoyancy frequency.
