To convert feet to meters, multiply by 0.3048.
The Anua site lies deep into the embayment, with excellent natural protection
from wind waves and swell. Values of H10 range from 0.03 to 0.06 m (0.1 to
0.2 ft).
Values of H1 are higher than H10 but show similar relative trends.
Differences between H1 and H10 are biggest at Anasosopo. Values of H1 range
from 0.7 to 1.2 m (2.4 ft to 3.9 ft) at Anasosopo. The highest value of H1 and the
