Abstract

A new shallow-water theory valid for arbitrary bottom slope, due to Bouchut et al. (2003), is derived systematically by a scaling method. The fact that the pressure is hydrostatic, and the form of the velocity parallel to the bottom, are consequences of the scaling method, and need not be assumed.
