Abstract

Potential inconsistencies in the predictions of long term wave heights can be experienced as a result of different methods of analysis possible when using directional wave data. This paper attempts to illustrate some of them. It involves analysis of two sets of directional wave data - one froa a coastal location in the Irish Sea and another from an offshore location in the North Sea. An attempt is made to eliminate the discrepancies between the long term return-value wave height predictions based upon the conditional height distributions associa ted with different direction sectors and those derived from the oonl-directional data set.
