Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "water wave motion depth" to get these possible sources:
http://www.kettering.edu/~drussell/Demos/waves/wavemotion.html
http://www.seafriends.org.nz/oceano/waves.htm
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/HBASE/waves/watwav2.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_surface_wave
http://www.srh.noaa.gov/jetstream//ocean/wave_max.htm
In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
What happens to the motion of the paritcles in a water wave, as the depth increases?
Thank you very much.
