Appendix 1. Scenarios

Skip past contents information

This file contains information on 128 individual wave condition scenarios that were modeled in order to provide guidance on impacts of potential proposed sediment borrow pits on Breton Iisland wave climate. The columns in the table are:

  • Scenario: scenario name, assigned by USGS
  • Wave Height Bin (m): the range of wave heights this scenario represents
  • Wave Dir. Bin (meteorological convention, degs.): the wave directions this scenario represents (in degrees clockwise from north,direction waves are coming from)
  • % of Obs.: the percentage of observations between May, 1995, and December, 2013 that this scenario represents/li>
  • Representative Time: specific time which that was modeled for the scenario
