CARICOOS Buoy PR2 (San Juan, PR): Wave Data
CARICOOS real-time buoy observations near Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands at PR2 - CarICOOS Data Buoy B, located at 18d 28.548m N, 66d 5.970m Wl, North side of Puerto Rico near San Juan. Buoy PR214 was deployed from 2026-07-14 12:00:00 through 0000-00-00 00:00:00 UTC. Instrument_1: Sea surface wave measurements of signficant wave height and dominant wave period are estimated from vertical accelerations measured twice each hour by a 3-axis accelerometer onboard the buoy. Instrument_2: Sea surface wave measurements of significant wave height, dominant wave period, and mean wave direction are measured hourly by an Axys TRIAXYS wave sensor onboard the buoy.
