Full Yr Figure 16. Maximums and means of significant wave height for Atlantic City; determined from 7-rainute pen-and-ink records taken six times daily during 1964-65 and 1967. Values for September were obtained by determining the mean from the respective plot for height and period for 1965 and 1967, then weighted by the number of observations during 1964, 1965, and 1967 to arrive at an average for the years 1965 and 1967; all other average values include the monthly values for 1964, 1965, and 1967 (from Thompson, 1977). r ? - Avg/Yr.
