Abstract
The wave equation has been solved by using normal mode theory. The medium is assumed to be horizontally stratified. A closed form solution has been found in the case of GANS - PEDERSEN types of density and sound-speed profiles. For real profiles of any given shape a numerical solution is employed that makes use of the VOLTERRA integral equation.
