the maximum accuracy of wave direction determinations with a three-gage array 

 is on the order of ±20°. This level of accuracy may be expected only for 

 narrow-banded wave trains with periods longer than a lower limit determined 

 at each location by array dimensions and water depth. The field study also 

 indicates narrow-banded wave trains are frequent at this coastal location.
