The analytical results of the nonlinear theory of wave packets are tested against experiments performed in a water tank and compared with the analytical results of the linear theory of low-amplitude waves and the theory of weakly nonlinear gravitational waves on the free fluid surface infinite in extent. The results of experiments and observations well-known in the literature are used for testing.
