✦ Synopsis

Bulk transfer coefficients were evaluated from eddy correlation flux measurements on a tixed pier during onshore winds. The mean values are C D = 1.69 x 10m3, CH = 2.58 x 1O-3 and CE = 1.51 X 10m3. The drag coefficient, C D, gradually increases with wind speed but C, and CE are independent of wind speed. According to theory and empirical formulas based on experimental results over flat grassland, the transfer coefficients should gradually increase with increasing instability. This is confirmed experimentally in the stable region in our case. However, the drag coefficient appears to decrease with increasing instability, which is against the theoretical result. A stability dependence is not clearly observed for Cn or C,.
