The waves for design are expected to have a period of 15s and coming with an angle of 30 degrees with respect to the vector perpendicular to the shoreline.
As a first step, determine the deep water wave whose wave height has a return period of 80 years. Use the Weibull distribution parameters and storm occurrence rate from the table.
