The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Field Wave Gaging Program (FWGP) operates a nationwide network of wave gauges and serves as the Corps' central access point for all U.S. wave data. This is the third in a series of FWGP reports describing, through case studies, the process of selecting sites for wave gauges. This report illustrates the use of two different models to optimize gauge sites in a local gauge network for a harbor oscillation study. The harbor that was studied is Kahului Harbor, Hawaii. Results of the numerical model tests show that Kahului Harbor is characterized by numerous resonant modes in the frequency band from 0.001 to 0.012 Hz. Recommendations from this report were followed in deployment of the Kahului Harbor gauge network in October of 1993. The network was installed and is operated by the Ocean Engineering Research Group at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
