Ground waves are radio waves propagating parallel to and adjacent to the surface of the Earth, following the curvature of the Earth. This radiation is known as Norton surface wave, or more properly Norton ground wave, because ground waves in radio propagation are not confined to the surface.

ground wave
A ground wave is a type of radio wave that is propagated over the surface of the earth, typically at frequencies below 2 MHz. These waves can follow the earth's curvature because of diffraction, making them ideal for long-distance communication, especially in areas where there are no mountains or large buildings to obstruct the signal. Ground waves are particularly useful in AM radio broadcasting and long-wave broadcasting.
