Sensible heat flux from ocean to air.
Also, diabatic heating of ocean from sun.
Heat transfer coefficient of pure seawater vs seawater mixed with oil and/or dispersants.
Trying to find numbers on the web but can't.
Only thing so far is that oil mixed with water has a lower heat transfer coefficient than just seawater.
Also, heat capacity is lower.
HMMMM.
