MVCO Wave Details
The wave data are taken from the RDI Waverider ADCP located 41° 20.200' N, 70° 33.388' W at the underwater node. The surface spectra are computed using a bin near the surface (85% pressure to stay away from the surface) and transformed to the surface using linear wave theory. Direction is taken from the PUV near the bottom and weighted with the surface spectra to obtain wave direction near the surface.

The figure shows the spectral density of the velocity near the surface in mks and wave direction .
