It contains selected information about water-wave motion for which advanced mathematical study can be pursued, enabling readers to derive conclusions that explain observed phenomena to the greatest extent possible. The author discusses the underlying physical factors of such waves and explores the physical relevance of the mathematical results that are presented. The material is an expanded version of the author's lectures delivered at the NSF-CBMS Regional Research Conference in the Mathematical Sciences organized by the Mathematics Department of the University of Texas-Pan American in 2010. 410 0$aCBMS-NSF Regional conference series in applied mathematics ;$v81. 606 $aNonlinear waves 606 $aNonlinear wave equations 606 $aTsunamis$xMathematical models 615 0$aNonlinear waves. 615 0$aNonlinear wave equations. 615 0$aTsunamis$xMathematical models. 676 $a551.46/3 700 $aConstantin$b Adrian$0477754 712 02$aSociety for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. 801 0$bCaBNVSL 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911004741103321 996 $aNonlinear water waves with applications to wave-current interactions and tsunamis$9240988 997 $aUNINA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
