A surface wave
Surface wave
In physics, a surface wave is a mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media, usually two fluids with different densities. A surface wave can also be an electromagnetic wave guided by a refractive index gradient...

Stoneley wave
A surface wave associated with the interface between two solid media. The wave is of maximum intensity at the interface and decreases exponentially away from the interface into both solids. Named after Dr. Robert Stoneley , Emeritus Professor of Seismology, Cambridge....
