| cf_standard_name | sea_surface_wave_period_at_variance_spectral_density_maximum |
| description | Wave period associated with the most energetic waves in total wave spectrum, incorporating both wind-sea and swell waves. In spectral wind wave models, this represents the spectral peak across the entire two-dimensional wave spectrum, incorporating both wind-sea and swell waves. |
