| cf_standard_name | sea_surface_wind_wave_period_at_variance_spectral_density_maximum |
| description | Wave period associated with the most energetic wind-sea waves (i.e., local wind waves). In spectral wind wave models, this represents the spectral peak across part of the two-dimensional wave spectrum, incorporating just wind-sea waves. |
