Measured and derived wave parameters from data collected by a wave monitoring buoy anchored at Tweed Heads. This site is jointly operated by the Department of Environment and Science and the Tweed River Entrance Sand Bypass Project. For more information please refer to www.qld.gov.au/waves.
Field names;
Hs- Significant wave height, an average of the highest third of the waves in a record (26.6 minute recording period).
Hmax - The maximum wave height in the record.
Tz - The zero upcrossing wave period.
Tp - The peak energy wave period.
Peak Direction - Direction (related to true north) from which the peak period waves are coming from.
SST - Sea Surface Temperature as measured in the bottom of the hull of buoys.

Wave height, direction and sea surface temperature are recorded daily at 12 sites on the Coast of Queensland. Cairns, Weipa, Townsville, Mackay, Hay Point, Emu Park, Moreton Bay, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Tweed River, Caloundra, Mooloolaba are monitored daily by waverider buoys fitted with a accelerometer. This website also contains data from Storm surges from Mornington Island down to Caloundra.
