Abstract
In a rotating system, the vertical transport of angular momentum by internal gravity waves is independent of height, except at critical levels where the Doppler-shifted wave frequency is equal to plus or minus the Coriolis frequency. If slow rotation is ignored in studying the propagation of internal gravity waves through shear flows, the resulting solutions are in error only at levels where the Doppler-shifted and Coriolis frequencies are comparable.
