Average oceanic wave height

[Zolar V]

Just wondering what the average day to day wave height is of oceanic waves. lets say in the Atlantic away from the coast in the open ocean.

 

I am looking for the average wave height on calm days with no weather, and the average wave height for stormy days.

 

i found NOAA and their wave height and period forecast over a period of days.

It appears that the average height = 4m

and the average period = 10

But that is just in an area that didn't change much.

the height and period would be greater if i chose an area that had a greater change, ie closer to the shoreline.

using those figures i did a quick calculation of the average power of the waves.

i came up with 80 kw.
