Figure A4-2. Weighted average significant wave height for (A) bathymetry including borrow pit 3 (outlined in white) and (B) change from the baseline case. The average is created from the output of individual scenarios, weighted by their percentage occurrence over the time period December 1995 through December 2013 (fig. 2). Borrow pit 3 creates a shadowing effect originating from the corners.
