Answer:
A wave that travels directly from one point to another following the surface of the earth is called ground or surface wave. In ground wave propagation, loss of energy due to interaction with matter increases with the increase in frequency (or decrease in wavelength). Wavelengths less than 200 m (or frequencies\[>\text{ 15}00\text{ kHz}\]) get heavily damped. So short wave communication via ground waves is not possible.
