Prediction of nearshore wave characteristics is an essential part of any 

 study dealing with the determination of littoral transport or longshore cur- 

 rents. Since it is more efficient to determine the deepwater wave as opposed 

 to in shallow water where many points are needed because of bottom effects, 

 it is necessary to transform those deepwater values into shallow-water charac- 

 teristics.
