Appendix B: This appendix provides information on the Wave Information Study(WIS) Phase III hindcast wave data. Included is a summary of wave statistics for the 20-year period 1956 - 1975. Table 81 gives the statistics categorized by wave approach angle in degrees. Values in the direction tables represent the percent of the 20 years that waves occur from the specified direction bands for the indicated height and period ranges. The values have been multiplied by 1,000 to allow more accuracy with less printing space. Summations are provided in the last column and row of each table. Table 82 is a summary of the same data for waves from all directions. Values in Table 82 are multiplied by 100. The parameters listed in the last line of the all-direction table are derived from all preceding directional tables for the full 20 years. There were 58,440 cases analyzed, but not all cases resulted in finite wave conditions. Approximately 15.77 percent of the wave conditions at station 54 were considered calm. The angle class percentage found in each angle class table has been rounded to the nearest 0.1 percent in the all-directions table and in summing the percent occurrence found in the individual angle class tables. Table B3 is a summary of the 200 largest wave heights ranked in descending order, together with the corresponding date, wave period, and wave direction measured from the south.
