[math]\displaystyle{ \phi^{\mathrm{I}}\, }[/math] is a plane wave travelling in the [math]\displaystyle{ x }[/math] direction,

[math]\displaystyle{ \phi^{\mathrm{I}}(x,z)=A \left\{ \frac{\cos k_0(z+h)}{\cos k_0 h} \right\} e^{-k_0 x} }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ A }[/math] is the wave amplitude and [math]\displaystyle{ k_0 }[/math] is the positive imaginary solution of the Dispersion Relation for a Free Surface (note we are assuming that the time dependence is of the form [math]\displaystyle{ \exp(\mathrm{i}\omega t) }[/math]).
