The wave model is a simplified version of the model proposed by Jean-Christophe Gonzato and Bertrand Le Saec in their paper A phenomenological model of coastal scenes based on physical considerations. We assume infinite depth and can therefore ignore waves being reflected by the ocean floor. The infinite depth assumption also allows us to neglect light refraction, we simply use a solid color for refracted light.
