Wave measurement Lake Taihu, China : data report 2006

In cooperation with the Taihu Authority, RWS IJsselmeergebied has set up a wave measurement program in Lake Taihu, China. The present report provides insight in the availability and quality of the measurements and the range of conditions that occured during the period of observations in 2006. Based on the results of the analysis carried out, it gives guidelines for a more detailed validations of the measurements when data from more locations are available. The analysis has shown that the wave data for more extreme events have only limited reliability. Based on experience in the IJsselmeer, it is expected that improved software/settings of the Log_al_evel instruments will improve the quality.
