Field names are; Hs - Significant wave height, an average of the highest third of the waves in a record (26.6 minute recording period). Hmax - The maximum wave height in the record. Tz - The zero upcrossing wave period. Tp - The peak energy wave period. Peak Direction - Direction (related to true north) from which the peak period waves are coming from. SST - Sea Surface Temperature as measured by a sensor embedded in the bottom of the hull of the buoy.
