Abstract One method of describing wave motion in a fluid with continuous stratification is to use normal waves (modes). The propagation of internal gravity waves in closed rectangular regions whose boundaries coincide with planes through which there is no normal motion is essentially different from wave motion in an unbounded medium [1, 2]. This paper describes a theoretical and experimental investigation of the propagation of internal waves in an exponentially stratified fluid in a horizontal channel of finite height.
