Directional Wave Spectra MODEL for La Perouse Bank off Ucluelet and Tofino

Note:
Depending on the time of day these models are not always displayed.

The radial lines in the plots depict the directional resolution of the model.
I.E. Direction TOWARD which waves are predicted to go.
The concentric circles are plotted at 0.05 Hz intervals, where the innermost circle corresponds to 0.25 Hz.
ie. 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25 Hz which for us SURFERS respectively corresponds to
20 second, 10 second, 7 second, 5second and 4 secondWaves.
The arrow in the middle depicts wind speed and direction.
Colours represent wave energy density for spectra rates of energy density plotted at a logarithmic scale.
