Period Summary

Programmatically generated summary. Hog Says

48 wave-buoy observations were recorded during the day. Typical wave height was 5.3 ft (10th–90th percentile 4.2–5.7 ft), while mean peak wave period was 9.3 seconds (10th–90th percentile 9–9.6 seconds). Typical calculated wave power was approximately 10.9 kW/m (10th–90th percentile 5.9–12.5 kW/m), derived from significant wave height and energy period. All 144 checked values passed quality control.

About Anglet wave buoy

Anglet is a CANDHIS directional buoy on the French Basque coast, operated within the national sea-state observatory coordinated by Cerema. It records the highly exposed southern Bay of Biscay setting off Anglet's beaches, close to the Adour estuary and the approaches to Bayonne.

Its current data source reports wave height, wave period, wave direction, directional spread and sea temperature.
