Comparison of annual wave period distributions for Gage 625 All years 54. The 6 years of data from 1980 through 1985 provide the most com- plete description of the wave climate at the FRF. Annual wave height distri- butions for all of the gages are presented in Figure 21. Gage 640 is a new installation this year. It is located at approximately the seaward extent of the breaker zone. Only 1 year of data is available from it, however. Off- shore at Gage 630, heights can be expected to exceed 2 m over 8 percent of the time, 3 m about percent of the time, and to occasionally exceed 4 m. At the seaward end of the pier (Gage 625), heights can be expected to exceed 2 m about percent of the time and 3 m less than 1 percent. Seasonal height variation is summarized by examining data for Gage 625. Mean seasonal heights are near 1 m during the winter and autumn and near during spring and summer (Figure 22). During January through March and October through December heights can be expected to exceed 3 m approximately 1 percent of the time. During April through June the heights exceed 2 m approximately percent of the time, while during July through September they exceed the same height over percent (Figure 23). 55. Seasonal wave period variation for all years of data combined are 40.
