2020 Wave Data for the Tweed Heads wave monitoring site.
Data Dictionary
| Column | Type | Label | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Date/Time (AEST) | timestamp | Date/Time (AEST) | Date and Time of wave data record (AEST) |
| Hs (m) | numeric | Significant Wave Height | The significant wave height (in metres), defined as the average of the highest one-third of the zero up-crossing wave heights in a wave record. . This wave height closely approximates the value a person would visualise if physically looking at the waves, over the same time period of the record. |
| Hmax (m) | numeric | Hmax | The maximum zero up-crossing wave height (in meters) |
| Tz (s) | numeric | Zero Up-Crossing Wave Period | The average of the zero up-crossing wave periods (in seconds) in a wave record. |
| Tp (s) | numeric | Wave Period | Wave period at the peak spectral energy (in seconds). This is an indication of the wave period of those waves that are producing the most energy in a wave record. |
| Peak Direction (degrees) | numeric | Peak Wave Direction | The direction associated with the peak energy period (Tp) waves, shown in degrees from true north. |
| SST (degrees C) | numeric | Sea Surface Temperature | The sea surface temperature at the wave monitoring buoy, in degrees Celsius. |
