Table 8-7. Transformed wave heights: significant heights and periods in 

 d = 12.0 m . 



Numbers represent transformed wave height. For example, a lO-meter-high deepwater wave with a period of 14 seconds approaching from 

 N 75 deg E (in deep water) will be 9.255 meters high at the Island site (i.e., in a depth of 12.0 meters). 



Numbers In parentheses represent the number of hours waves are below given height and above next lower height for given period and 

 direction. For example, deepwater waves between 9.5 and 10 meters in height with a period of 12 seconds were experienced for 1 hour 

 in the one year of hindcast data. Equivalently, the wave height at the structure site for the given deepwater wave statistics will be 

 between 3.307 and 5.386 meters for 1 hour.
