Figure 6.12 R<strong>at</strong>io between Hmax and Hm0 (Waverider south d<strong>at</strong>a), May 1999 to<br />
November 2002<br />
Figure 6.13 shows the rel<strong>at</strong>ionship between wave height (Hm0) and wave period (T02).<br />
The measured values can roughly be regarded as grouped in two clusters; an upper<br />
cluster where waves are gener<strong>at</strong>ed by the wind and a lower cluster (Hm0 ≈ 0.5 m) where<br />
the waves origin<strong>at</strong>e from swells.<br />
The wind gener<strong>at</strong>ed part of the waves shows th<strong>at</strong> there is a well-defined rel<strong>at</strong>ionship<br />
between wave height and wave period.<br />
