Model Probabilities

The model probabilities file serves to enhance your analysis by providing insights into the run order and the likelihood of each model condition unfolding. Adhere to the prescribed naming convention. Note that this file correlates with the return interval in years.

• File Type: .csv file format.

  • File structure:

    • ‘Hs’: Wave height.

    • ‘Tp’: Wave period.

    • ‘Dp’: Wave direction.

    • ‘% of dir bin’: Proportion within a direction bin.

    • ‘% of yr’: The probability of a given condition arising within a year.

    • ‘run order’: Execution sequence.

    • ‘Exclude’: Designation for excluding runs.

Example of a Probabilities Input

Hs[m]	Tp[s]	Dp[deg]	% of dir bin	% of yr	run order	Exclude
1.76	6.6	221.8	15.41	0.39	6
2.67	8.62	220.8	40.68	1.029	16
4.06	10.16	221.3	23.47	0.593	20
1.37	15.33	224	8.06	0.204	2
7.05	12.6	223.6	3.42	0.086	24	x

While you may include optional columns such as wave height or period, they won’t impact the analysis. The ‘Exclude’ column enables you to earmark certain runs for omission.

Note

If you include the ‘Exclude’ column, the % of year will rescale included run to total 100%.
