1.8 CF Standard Names: Sea Surface Wave Period of Highest Wave (sea_surface_wave_period_of_highest_wave)

Record Label : sea_surface_wave_period_of_highest_wave

Record Title : Sea Surface Wave Period of Highest Wave

CF Standard Name : sea_surface_wave_period_of_highest_wave

Record Description : Wave period of the highest wave is the period determined from wave crests corresponding to the greatest vertical distance above mean level during the observation period. A period is an interval of time, or the time-period of an oscillation. Wave period is the interval of time between repeated features on the waveform such as crests, troughs or upward passes through the mean level.
