Wave Shoaling Calculator

Wave Shoaling Calculator MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Calculates wave height changes and shoaling coefficients as waves approach shallow water.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized tools for oceanographic analysis of wave shoaling. It allows AI agents to calculate how wave height increases as waves move from deep water into shallower regions due to energy conservation. Using calculate_shoaling_parameters, agents can determine the shoaling coefficient and wavelength reduction. The server also includes analyze_wave_regime to identify if waves are in deep, intermediate, or shallow water, and predict_breaking_height to estimate when a wave will become unstable and break.

Calculate the shoaling parameters for a wave with a height of 2m, a period of 10s, in 5m of water.

The shoaling coefficient is 1.15, the new wave height is 2.3m, and the wavelength reduction is 4.2m.

Is a wave with a 10s period in 20m of water in deep or shallow water?

The wave is in the intermediate water regime.

What is the maximum stable height for a wave in 3m of water if the deep water height was 1.5m?

The maximum stable height is 2.1m, leaving a safety margin of 0.6m.

Wave shoaling is the process where wave height increases as waves move into shallower water, driven by the conservation of energy flux as wave speed changes.
