Base on the data measured by three-axes propeller anemometers mounted on a 100m tower located in the coastal area of Guangdong, China at 10 and 75m levels and the statistical turbulence`s theory, the atmospheric diffusion parameters have been analyzed. The results indicate that, in the coastal region, the horizontal turbulence was controlled by large-scale eddies and the vertical turbulence was controlled by comparatively small-scale eddies. There is an obvious rapid change in the diffusion parameters when the sea and land breezes change their direction from sea to land and vice versa. The rapid change in lower layer is more obvious than in the upper layer.
