Wave Information Studies of US Coastlines: Hindcast Wave Information for the Great Lakes: Lake Erie

Abstract

Thirty-two years of hindcast wind and wave information is summarized for 53 locations along the shoreline of Lake Erie in four data products: percent occurrence tables, wave rose diagrams, mean and largest wave height and 32-year statistics tables, and return period tables. The procedures used to produce this information are discussed, and examples of verification against measurements are shown.
