    A nonlinear ray method is used to study surface waves on a ferromagnetic fluid of variable depth subject to a horizontal magnetic field, and an equation of the KdV type with variable coefficients is derived. An approximate solution of the equation representing a three-dimensional soliton with varying amplitude and phase is constructed and numerical results are presented.
