A simple and mathematically tractable model of a nonstationary process is developed. The process is the sum of waves where the parameters of the waves are random. Explicit expres-sions for the mean and autocorrelation function at each position as a function of time are obtained. In the case of infinite time, the model evolves into a stationary process. The time-frequency distri-bution at each position is also obtained. An explicit example is given where the initial waves are Gaussian. The case where there is dispersion in the propagation is also discussed.
