Column	Type	Label	Description
Date/Time (AEST)	timestamp	Date and Time	Date and Time of wave data record (AEST)
Hs (m)	numeric	Significant Wave Height	The significant wave height (in metres), defined as the average of the highest one-third of the zero up-crossing wave heights in a wave record. . This wave height closely approximates the value a person would visualise if physically looking at the waves, over the same time period of the record.
Hmax (m)	numeric	Highest Single Wave	The maximum zero up-crossing wave height (in meters)
Tz (s)	numeric	Zero Up-Crossing Wave Period	The average of the zero up-crossing wave periods (in seconds) in a wave record.
Tp (s)	numeric	Wave Period	Wave period at the peak spectral energy (in seconds). This is an indication of the wave period of those waves that are producing the most energy in a wave record.
Peak Direction (degrees)	numeric	Peak Wave Direction	The direction associated with the peak energy period (Tp) waves, shown in degrees from true north.
SST (degrees C)	numeric	Sea Surface Temperature	The sea surface temperature at the wave monitoring buoy, in degrees Celsius.
