Description |
106-112
Spectra of waves off Cochin are generally multipeaked and wide-banded with high frequency sides showing similar slopes. The slope is milder than that proposed by Phillips (1958) for fully developed sea conditions. Examination of weather maps relating to the period of study explains the multipeakedness in the spectra to be due to the presence of sea waves and swells. The observed spectra are closer to those of Scott and Scott-Wiegel with the latter fitting the peak better. An average spectrum defined in terms of only wave heights is proposed for the location studied. |
