The spectral density technique is investigated as a basis for measuring turbulent fluxes of CO2and water vapour over the sea using observations obtained on a well-designed pier of Kyoto University during September 20–22, 2000. By comparing the turbulent fluxes measured by the spectral density technique with those determined by the eddy correlation technique, a set of parameters of the non-dimensional gradient (φ) and Kolmogorov constant (a) was determined. The following parameters are the optimal selection under unstable conditions for the spectral density technique:φc= φq= (1 − 16z/L)−1/2; αc= 0.78 and αq= 0.76Here, subscriptscandqrefer to CO2and water vapour;zis height andLis the Obukhov stability length. The present results demonstrate that with rugged sonic anemometer-thermometer sensors and computers, the spectral density technique applied over the sea has an accuracy comparable to that of the eddy correlation technique.
