The influence of water vapor fluctuations on vertical turbulent fluxes is examined. It is shown that effects on density and, consequently, buoyancy are insignificant. However, because specific heat of air is a function of specific humidity, these fluctuations are found to influence sensible heat fl

Various aspects of the Brook correction for the effects of moisture fluctuations or gradients on atmospheric specific heat and, consequently, on the vertical flux of sensible heat are discussed, and additional forms of the complete and approximate equations are derived. Corollary expressions for the
## Abstract Measurements are presented on the influence of Schmidt number on the frequency of the mass transfer fluctuations at a solid boundary. The shape of the spectral function is similar at all Schmidt numbers. A relation between the mass transfer fluctuations and the fluctuating velocity fiel
