Abstract
► This note analyses geographically-localised shelf waves on curving coasts. ► The underlying eigenvalue problem is shown to be non-self-adjoint. ► Asymptotic formulae are obtained for slowly-varying curvatures. ► An example is given where the solution to the asymptotic problem is explicit. ► Numerical solutions using a new nonlinear boundary condition confirm the analysis.
