A = At deep water. The orbital motion of fluid particles decreases rapidly with increasing depth below the surface. B = At shallow water (ocean floor is now at B).  The elliptical movement of a fluid particle flattens with decreasing depth. 1 = Propagation direction.  2 = Wave crest. 3 = Wave trough. | | orbital | Energy | Power | Work | physical | crest | shear stress | wave height | Ocean surface wave | fetch | shallow water | wavelength | Oscillatory motion | standing waves | clapotis | microseisms | group velocity | plane | crest | flux | wavelength | significant wave height | buoys | standard deviation | elevation | period | mass density | acceleration by gravity | square | wave height | sea state | energy | gravity waves | kinetic | potential energy | equipartition theorem | wavelengths | decimetres | group velocity | flux | dispersion relation | wavelength | period | linear wave theory | phase velocity | group velocity | flux | frequency | rad | wavenumber | wavelength | phase velocity | shallow water | hydraulic ram | elastomeric hose pump | hydroelectric turbine | linear electrical generator | parabolic reflectors | Pelamis Wave Energy Converter | Wave Dragon | Finavera Renewables | CETO | Fremantle | Western Australia | piston | sea floor | reverse osmosis | desalination | 2 of 3 P-750 machines  in the harbour of Póvoa de Varzim/ Portugal | | Wave farm | Aguçadora Wave Park | Póvoa de Varzim | Portugal | Pelamis P-750 | Scottish Executive | pounds | marine power in Scotland | Wave hub | Wave hub | Wave hub | Wave hub | CETO | citation needed | TW | University of Edinburgh | Oil Crisis | | Energy portal | Renewable energy | Pelamis wave energy converter | Wave farm | Tidal power | Ocean energy | Ocean thermal energy conversion | Wind power | Solar power | Hydroelectricity | Geothermal power | Biofuels | Biomass | World energy resources and consumption | ISBN 0419253300 | 2008 | 08-16 | The Guardian | 2008 | 10-09 | ISBN 0 521 29801 6 | ISBN 978-9810204204 | ISBN 978 981 02 3256 6 | wave height | Parseval's theorem | significant wave height | ISBN 0521860288 | Reynolds, O. | Lord Rayleigh (J.
