DESCRIPTION:For length scales of a few cm or less\, where both gravity and
  surface tension are important\, a rich variety of locally confined nonlin
 ear waves of permanent form can propagate on the surface of shallow and de
 ep water.  Such gravity-capillary solitary waves (in one dimension) and lu
 mps (in two dimensions) have been studied extensively in the last two deca
 des theoretically\, by analytical and numerical techniques\, as well as in
  laboratory experiments.  This body of work will be surveyed and open ques
 tions for future work will be highlighted.\n
