Period of Coverage: Wave characteristics: 1948-1950 
Lake levels: 1860-1951 
Contents: This publication is divided into two sections: (a) lake level 
statistics, and (b) wave statistics. 
The lake level data include average seasonal fluctuation, a frequency of 
occurrence for short period fluctuations, and a probability of occurrence of 
annual maximum monthly mean lake level for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 consecutive 
years. 
The wave statistics section is divided into separate subsections for each 
location. Each subsection contains statistical hindcast data for each month, 
statistical hindcast data for a full year, statistical hindcast data for 
ice-free periods, and statistical energy data for various periods. Wave 
roses and duration and frequency of waves as a function of wave heights are 
also included.
