A general introduction to aeroacoustics and atmospheric sound

This general introductory paper is devoted to Interactions of Sound with Air, including transmission through the atmosphere and $$\left. {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {both{\text{ }}generation{\text{ }}of{\text{ }}sound{\text{ }}by} \\ {and{\text{ }}propagation{\text{ }}of{\text{ }}sound{\text{ }}in} \\\end{array} } \right\}airflows$$ (e.g., manmade flows — around aircraft or air machinery — or natural winds) as affected by the air’s boundaries and atmospheric composition; with (conversely) generation of airflows by sound (acoustic streaming).
