Page 36 In a strong El Niño year, unusually energetic wave events are to be expected. But whatever the cause, there was an unusually large storm wave occurrence along the west coast of the United States in early December 2015, centered on the Oregon-California border. A complete record of that event was obtained by the wave measurement buoys of the Coastal Data Information Program (CDIP). CDIP, a program managed by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) at the University of California, San Diego, operates a network of 65 wave measurement buoys along the coastlines of the United States. This program is funded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) with cost-sharing from the California Department of Parks and Recreation, Division of Boating and Waterways. Eight of the CDIP Datawell Waverider buoys are located along the coastline in southern Oregon as well as northern and central California and were well-positioned to monitor the development of the December storm, as described in Table 1. The locations are shown in Figure 1. The data streams from these buoys were transmitted to a satellite and then retransmitted to SIO.
