Description: 3 Weeks of aerometric observations from a shipboard platform are described and      analyzed to obtain surface layer quantities relevant to the dispersion of pollutants from      offshore oil operations. Momentum, heat, and moisture flux were estimated with two      different methods: the dissipation technique and bulk parameterizations. Diffusion scale      turbulence was measured with bivane anemometers and estimates of ship motion      contributions to these measurements were performed. Keywords: Turbulence diffusion;      Measurements; and Santa Barbara Channel. (Author)
