Abstract

Edge waves have been reported to pose a threat of inundation to lowland coasts.To illustrate main features of edge waves generated by external forces, we consider two simple examples: landslides moving in the cross-shore direction, and moving atmospheric disturbances parallel to the shoreline.The derivation of a linear shallow water edge wave subject to external force and numerical results are both presented.
