TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the probability distribution of shallow water wave heights, obtained from a pressure type recorder, and tested with the theoretical distributions of (a) Rayleigh, (b) Weibull, (c) Gluhovski, (d) Ibrageemov and (e) Goda.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined spectral, zero up-crossing and Tucker's methods of analysis for shallow water wave records and found that the wave height parameters H s and H _- are most reliable and consistent irrespective of the analysis technique.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Dobson wave refraction program, modified to incorporate bottom frictional attenuation, for the prediction of nearshore wave heights over a gently sloping, wide continental shelf.

TL;DR: In this article, a bevelled block submerged breakwater with 1 on 1.67 seaward slope and a vertical shoreward face is examined with laboratory tests, and the Goda's method was found to be the simplest and most suitable in the case of the shore protecting submerged breakwaters.
