Abstract
A method is described for the measurement of turbulent shearing stress and vertical heat flux by way of ‘structure functions’—the mean square velocity and temperature differences between two points a known distance apart. The method is particularly suitable for shipboard use because it does not require the measurement of velocity components relative to a fixed frame of reference. An analysis of the available observations, although they are not ideally suited to the purpose, is encouraging and points the way to further development of the method.
