Measured and derived wave parameters from data collected by a wave monitoring buoy anchored at Tweed Offshore. For more information please refer to www.qld.gov.au/waves.Field names are;
Hs - Significant wave height, an average of the highest third of the waves in a record (26.6 minute recording period).
Hmax - The maximum wave height in the record.
Tz - The zero upcrossing wave period.
Tp - The peak energy wave period.
Peak Direction - Direction (related to true north) from which the peak period waves are coming from.
SST - Sea Surface Temperature as measured by a sensor embedded in the hull of the buoy.
