Definitions

wave absorption

A barrier used to shield an area from large waves in a body of water.

A wave absorption barrier is a breakwater, wall, berm, or other object whose purpose is to shield an area from large or disturbing waves in a body of water on the other side. This is most commonly applied to breakwaters which shelter a harbor from waves formed on a larger expanse of water, but it can also be applied to barriers which shelter land areas from wetness or erosion caused by water waves.
