Wave shoaling - Wikipedia
In fluid dynamics, wave shoaling is the effect by which surface waves, entering shallower water, change in wave height. It is caused by the fact that the group velocity, which is also the wave …

Shoaling Wave - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Wave shoaling is the change in shape and behaviour as waves propagate into water of decreasing depth. This results in decreases in wave speed and wavelength while wave height …
