For
the normal derivative at contains and the normal derivative at contains . Both therefore vanish at the side walls.
At , has exactly the same horizontal dependence as the imposed pressure. The dynamic boundary condition is consequently consistent provided has that same horizontal mode. This is the rectangular standing surface-gravity mode selected by the forcing.
