What is Significant wave height?

Significant wave height is defined as the average wave height, from trough to crest, of the highest one-third of the waves. Devised by oceanographer Walter Munk during World War II, the significant wave height provides an estimation of wave heights recorded by a trained observer from a fixed point at sea.

How to Calculate Wave Period for North Atlantic Ocean?

Wave Period for North Atlantic Ocean calculator uses Coastal Wave Period = 2.5*Wave Height to calculate the Coastal Wave Period, The Wave Period for North Atlantic Ocean formula is defined as time it takes for two successive crests (one wavelength) to pass specified point. Coastal Wave Period is denoted by p symbol.

How to calculate Wave Period for North Atlantic Ocean using this online calculator?
