Waves - Marine Science Australia
http://www.ausmarinescience.com/marine-science-basics/waves
Waves are classified by amplitude, period and wavelength. The amplitude of an ocean wave is the wave height from trough to crest divided by 2. Wave period is the time it takes for a wave to pass between successive crests. Wave height reported by a Waverider buoy. Is called "significant wave height" or Hsig. Hsig is the height of the largest 1/3 of waves in a 30 minute record measured as the vertical distance between the crest of a wave and the following trough. Queensland wave conditions now. Fluctuation...
