Brief description
Historically measured/calculated wave parameters. Measured and derived wave data from data collected by oceanographic wave measuring buoys anchored at locations on the Queensland coastline. \r\nFor more information please refer to [www.qld.gov.au/waves](https://www.qld.gov.au/waves). \r\n \r\nField names are; \r\n**Hs** - Significant wave height, an average of the highest third of the waves in a record (26.6 minute recording period). \r\n**Hmax** - The maximum wave height in the record. \r\n**Tz** - The zero upcrossing wave period. \r\n**Tp** - The peak energy wave period. \r\n**Dir_Tp TRUE** - Direction (related to true north) from which the peak period waves are coming from. \r\n**SST** - Approximation of sea surface temperature.Full description
