k^2 \simeq \frac{N^2 k_\perp^2}{\omega^2}.
\end{equation}
Gravity waves have fluid velocity nearly perpendicular to the stratification (i.e., nearly horizontal). Their group velocity is primarily horizontal,
with
\begin{equation}
\label{eqn:vgravperp}
v_{g,\perp} = \frac{\omega}{k_\perp} \, ,
\end{equation}
but with a
small radial component of

\end{equation}
For non-negligible buoyancy or magnetic field, the slow and fast magneto-gravity waves have similar characteristics. In the limit of very strong magnetic field or stratification (such that the second term in the square root of equation \ref{eqn:magnetodisp} dominates), we have
