Item description from seller

H. O. Pub. No. 603, 284 pages, illustrated. "Advancing in wave forecasting techniques have resulted in an increasing demand by various operational activities for wave forecasting. With an accurate advanced knowledge of wave conditions, it is possible to conduct such activities as naval operations, merchant vessel routing, seaplane landings, offshore, drilling, nearshore construction and commerical fishing more efficiently and safely. The Pierson-Neumann-James theory of forecasting ocean waves, based on the mathematical concepts of statistics, is completely new and represent a more mathematically realistic approach to the problem of wave forecasting than existed heretofore." FINE HARDCOVER, with the 4 fine folded graphs in the back pocket of book. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
