Abstract: Explicit equations based on the dispersion relation for linear waves are used to derive an analytical solution to the problem of wave height variation due to shoaling, refraction and frictional dissipation on a beach with straight, parallel contours where the depth is a power function of the distance from the shoreline. The solution is simple enough to be handled by a handheld calculator and as accurate as the underlying linear wave theory justifies.
