| Definitionskos:definition | The rush of water up a beach after a wave reaches the shoreline. The amount of wave run-up is the vertical distance between the maximum height the rush of water reaches on the beach and the still water level. Wave run-up depends on many factors including wave height, wave period, and the slope and composition of the beach. |
