Seasonal and interannual variability of the wave climate at a wave energy hotspot off the southwestern coast of Australia

Full description

This dataset contains the output from a 38-year wave hindcast for the Albany region of Western Australia. The methods and analysis are contained within the publication "Seasonal and interannual variability of the wave climate at a wave energy hotspot off the southwestern coast of Australia" by Cuttler et al.
