Angle between wave orthogonal and normal to the shoreline. 



Refraction-shoaling coefficients are summarized graphically in Figure 

 8-18 on the next page.

Transformation of Wave Statistics by Refraction and 



Shoaling . The refraction-shoaling coefficients calculated previously will be 

 used to transform the deepwater wave statistics given in Table 8-4 (see Tables 

 8-7 and 8-8 and Figure 8-19). The resulting statistics will be only 

 approximations since only the significant wave is considered in the 

 analysis. The actual sea surface is made up of many wave periods or 

 frequencies, each of which results in a different refraction-shoaling 

 coefficient.
