A train of surface waves is normally incident on a half immersed circular cylinder in a fluid of finite depth. Assuming the linearized theory of fluid under gravity an integral equation for the scattered velocity potential on the half immersed surface of the cylinder is obtained. It has not been found possible to solve this in closed form even for infinite depth of fluid. Our purpose is to obtain the asymptotic effect of finite depth ''h'' on the transmision and reflection coefficients when the depth is large.
