Abstract: Nonlinear dispersion shallow water equations are derived, which describe propagation of long surface waves on a spherical surface with allowance for rotation of the Earth and mobility of the ocean bottom. Derivation of these equations is based on expanding the solution of hydrodynamic equations on a sphere in small parameters depending on the relative thickness of the water layer and dispersion of surface waves.

Keywords: surface waves, ideal incompressible fluid flow, free boundary, nonlinear dispersion equations, shallow water equations on a sphere.
