5.2. Wave Periods
5.2.1. Zero Up-Crossing Period Calculated
from Time-Domain Data - T
ZUC
The zero up-crossing period can be calculated from time-domain measurements of the water level data,
by counting the number of times that the water level crosses the mean level upwards, and then by
dividing the total measurement time by the number of counted zero up-crosses.
5.2.2. Zero Up-Crossing Period calculated
from the Power Spectrum - T
ZUC_SPEC
Another method uses moments of the power spectrum of the water level measurements to calculate
the zero up-crossing period using the following formula, where M
0
and M
2
are the zeroth and second
spectral moment.
5.2.3. Crest Period Calculated from
Time-Domain Data - T
CREST
The crest period is calculated from the time-domain measurements of the water level data by counting
the number of crests (local maxima) and then by dividing the total measurement time by the number of
crests.
5.2.4. Crest Period Calculated from the Power
Spectrum - T
CREST_SPEC
The crest period can also be calculated from the power spectrum of the water level measurements using
the following formula, where M
0
and M
1
are the zeroth and first spectral moment.
