... advanced mathematical models that can be used for the description of wave climate with regard to port development. The major processes of wave transformation only are considered in this Paper such as refraction, diffraction, reflection and interaction with a current. Various models are classified according...

From this an analytical estimate of refraction effects at an inshore site can...
