摘要：

In order to interpret field data in terms of edge wave modes, investigators usually assume that the beach profile is linear, allowing the use of simple analytical solutions for edge wave structure and wave-length. The validity of this assumption is checked by using a numerical model to find the edge wave modes on a typical concave beach. The motion of the offshore profile of the edge wave due to a change of tidal elevation is dramatically different on a concave beach than on a plane beach. The tendency for the profile to move offshore for a drop in tide is compensated by the decrease in mean beach slope and hence reduction in wavelength and offshore extent of the wave. -from Authors
