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.
