  "term": "Shallow water wave",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A type of wave that propagates in a fluid layer where the water depth is much less than the wavelength. The speed of these waves depends primarily on the water depth and gravity, rather than the wavelength. Tides and tsunamis are classic examples of shallow water waves, even in the deep ocean.",
