• We present an overview of the paper that was awarded the 'Fluid Dynamics Research' 2009 prize of the Japan Society for Fluid Mechanics. This paper develops the analysis of the propagation of very long gravity waves in the ocean environment, with emphasis on tsunami waves. Both variable depth and some preexisting vorticity are allowed in the model, but under the over-arching assumption of long waves. Supported by some simple scaling arguments, together with some observations associated with the tsunami of Boxing Day 2004, it is argued that it is impossible for classical soliton theory to be the appropriate description of a developing tsunami.
