This session describes the use of sensors such as accelerometers and inclinometers to measure the heave acceleration and the vertical displacement of wave buoys, which are then converted to wave
parameters. Participants discuss data processing, transmission, and display, and some analysis. The session's presentation, papers, and extended abstracts provide information on the latest mooring components and devices such as acoustic Doppler current profilers which complement wave buoys.
