National Data Buoy

   In class we visited a site that has all the buoys and keeps track of the waves in certain places or when the last tsunami occurred and where the highest wave took place. You goal that we have achieve with this log post is to make a hypothesis and find out where the lowest and highest wave are and what we think was the cause the atmospheric pressure or wind speed that was at that location that it was last updated.  We also have to find out how many types of buoys there are and why they are so helpful to meteorologists, cities on the coast (seaside), boatsmen, you...?

My hypothesis about where the highest wave occurred is in Japan where there are a lot of earthquakes and tsunamis happening in a decade and  the lowest wave I guess it occurred  somewhere in Europe in Mediterranean sea.
he highest wave is in UK Met Office (Station 6405) which is 22.0 meters heigh and the lowest is can't be actually found because waves are just everywhere. But if we had to say which one is the lowest from the big one it would be in the gulf of Mexico NDBC (station 42001) and the height is 1.6 ft.

Buoys are very helpful to boatmen is that they give them instructions where to go or to warn them that there might be a big or low wave. This can also be helpful to meteorologists because they can find out what's the genera; weather in a place. The people that must be concerned about this topic are the citizens in coasts with lots of tsunamis so they can be aware of the next one coming. The last people that knowing the buoys topic and be aware of this site is us because it helps us is science to study waves in different places  and we get concerned about the events that are happening in our planet that destroy people's lifes.
