Organization of Report 
5. This report is organized into nine parts and five appendixes. 
Part I is an introduction; Parts II through VIII discuss the various data col- 
lected during the year; and Part IX describes the storms that occurred. 
Appendix A presents the bathymetric surveys, Appendix B summarizes deepwater 
wave statistics, and Appendixes C through E (published under separate cover as 
Volume II) contain summary statistics for other gages. 
6. In each part of this report, the respective instruments used for 
monitoring the meteorological or oceanographic conditions are briefly 
described, along with data collection and analysis procedures and data 
results. The instruments were interfaced with the primary data acquisition 
system, a Digital Equipment Corporation (Maynard, MA) VAX-11/750 minicomputer 
located in the FRF laboratory building. More detailed explanations of the 
design and the operation of the instruments may be found in Miller (1980). 
Readers’ comments on the format and usefulness of the data presented are 
encouraged.
