A theoretical discussion is presented of the propagation, stability, generation, scattering, interactions, and dissipation of low‐frequency waves trapped along continental shelves. Brief accounts of laboratory and oceanic evidence of these ‘shelf’ waves are also given. The emphasis is on those aspects of shelf wave dynamics that have been published during the past 5 years. Several theoretical and observational questions that deserve attention in the future are raised.
