Description of Measurements

WVHT	Significant Wave Height is the average height of the highest one-third of the waves during a 20 minute sampling period.
SWH	Swell height is the vertical distance between any swell crest and the succeeding swell wave trough.
SWP	Swell Period is the time (usually measured in seconds) that it takes successive swell wave crests or troughs pass a fixed point.
SWD	Swell Direction is the compass direction from which the swell wave are coming from.
WWH	Wind Wave Height is the vertical distance between any wind wave crest and the succeeding wind wave trough (independent of swell waves).
WWP	Wind Wave Period is the time (in seconds) that it takes successive wind wave crests or troughs to pass a fixed point.
WWD	Wind Wave Direction is the compass direction (degrees) from which the wind waves are coming.
Steepness	Wave steepness is the ratio of wave height to wave length and is an indicator of wave stability. When wave steepness exceeds a 1/7 ratio; the wave becomes unstable and begins to break.
APD	Average Wave Period is the average period (seconds) of the highest one-third of the wave observed durng a 20 minute sampling period.
MWD	Mean wave direction corresponding to energy of the dominant period (DOMPD). The units are degrees from true North just like wind direction.
