| Figure 11. Comparison of wave time series constructed using probabilistic method and observations at NDBC buoy 42007 for the time period January 19, 2005, to February 15, 2008 (left column), and comparison of the WavewatchIII® dataset and the observations for the same time period (right column). Comparisons of (A, B) significant wave height, (C, D) peak wave period, and (E) mean wave direction. WavewatchIII® output is every 3 hours, whereas Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN) results are hourly, resulting in a larger number of points. [m, meters; s, seconds; deg, degrees] | ||
