Hey guys, I have a minor problem of combining three related variables in a probability problem. I have tables (probability (%) of occurrences) for wave period and wave height, as well as wave height and wave direction:
My problem is: I need to obtain the directional probability of occurrence with respect to the wave period.
E.g. I need to know how much (percentage) of the SSW direction, for each listed wave height occurs at each wave period, so that I can then calculate the frequency of waves in each direction over an entire year.
If someone could help me relate the variables it would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need additional clarification to the problem.
Cheers
