Description Some selected wave profiles recorded using a ship borne wave recorder are analysed to study the effect of attenuation correction on the distribution of the surface amplitudes. A new spectral width parameter is defined to account for wide band and multipeaked spectra. The unattenuated surface profiles when computed from the attenuation corrected variance spectra and the unchanged phase spectra follow the Gauss an distribution even in very wide band cases for which the recorded profiles do not follow the Gaussian law. A narrow band case does not show much changes in the amplitude distribution. The computed, surface wave profile shows large changes depending upon the spectral width
