| Definition | A vessel-mounted wave recorder comprising a pair of heave transducers (accelerometers), a pair of pressure transducers, a signal processing unit and a data recorder. One heave transducer (measures long-period waves) and one pressure transducer (measures short-period waves) are mounted together on each side of the vessel close to the centre of pitch and 1-3m below the water-line to reduce the influence of pitch and roll. Waves of up to 30m height and 25 seconds period can be measured; the lower detectable limit depends on the installation depth of the pressure units.
