Wavenumber has
dimensions of
reciprocal length, so its SI unit is the
reciprocal of
meters (m−1). In
spectroscopy it is
usual to give
wavenumbers in...

Usually frequencies are
placed on the
vertical axis,
while wavenumbers are
placed on the
horizontal axis. In the
atmospheric sciences, these...

while wavenumbers 4–10 are
often referred to as "synoptic" waves. In the
Northern Hemisphere,
wavenumbers 1 and 2 are

expressing results in

Given the
