Ocean and coastal extreme waves (8m), 2010
Ministry for the EnvironmentThese data estimate the occurence of extreme wave events in coastal and oceanic waters for 2010, particularly for wave events where significant wave height exceeds a threshold of 8 metres and for a period of at least 12 hours. Significant wave height is defined as four times the square root of the variance of sea surface elevation due to wave motion. This...Created 2 February 2020 • Updated 3 March 2025 -
