Abstract :
Preliminary results of an intercomparison between several wave measurement systems used during the ARSLOE experiment are presented. The comparison consists of some of the measurements in the offshore region, 12 km to 40 km offshore, taken during a storm that occurred October 23 to 26, 1980. The results indicate that differences in significant wave heights can be larger than the random variability.
