✦ Synopsis

The authors are grateful to the derivation and correction addressed by Shi and Kirby (2008) for the calculation of the wave setup and setdown induced by obliquely incident waves. The mathematical equations for the expression of setup and setdown are rederived in which the velocity potential is expanded to the second-order on the still water lever. The correct form of setdown presented by Shi and Kirby is confirmed in the present paper.

An analytical theory is developed for the wave setup and setdown induced by obliquely incident waves on an impermeable swell-built beach profile. The wave setup and setdown are found to decrease as wave obliquity increases. The incorporation of wave obliquity in wave setup and setdown formulation of

Coastal Engineering, 53, 865-877, 2006) , the authors derived theoretical formulations for calculating the wave setup and setdown induced by obliquely incident waves on a beach. The derivation of an expression for setdown contains errors which would lead to an imbalance in longshore momentum flux o
