The window width of two seconds is one fifth of the period of the wave, and is a reasonable length of time to extend the locally steady approximation. Evolution of the Solution Fig. shows the evolution of the solution as the window is moved along the wave. The top figure shows the non-dimensional values of the local fundamental wave number, k, and the local fundamental frequency, ui. The importance of the local nature of the solution is apparent in this figure, as the solution varies substantially from window to window. The wave number and frequency both increase to maximum magnitude near the crest (4 < tu), < 7), and have lower values in the trough region (near tu^ = 3 and tu^ = 9). This pattern suggests that the kinematics in the crest region are similar to those of a much higher frequency lower
