First sentence: We adopt Euler's equations to describe three-dimensional, incompressible, inviscid long waves on a layer of water of variable depth h(r, t) which may vary with the horizontal position vector r = (x, y, 0) and possibly also with the time t for representing submerged moving body, submarine landslides, drifting sandbars, or seismic activities along the seafloor.
