Abstract
Computations of sensible and latent heat fluxes from measurements taken aboard a ship and from a spar buoy east of Barbados in July and August, 1968 are reported. A detailed comparison of the diurnal variation of the fluxes shows that the ship creates an island of turbulence quite different from open sea conditions. Measurements from the buoy, which are believed to be more typical of open ocean conditions indicate that the constant flux layer may be less than 6 m thick.
