Surface waves grow through a mechanism in which atmospheric pressure is offset in phase from the wavy surface. A pattern of low atmospheric pressure over upward wave orbital motions and high pressure over downward wave orbital motions travels with the water wave, leading to a pumping of kinetic energy from the atmospheric boundary layer into the waves. This pressure pattern persists above the air/water interface, modifying the turbulent kinetic energy in the atmospheric wave-affected boundary layer. Here, we present field measurements of the transfer of energy from wind to waves through wave-coherent atmospheric pressure work. Measured pressure work cospectra are consistent with an existing model for atmospheric pressure work. Measured pressure work energy fluxes reach 0.1-0.2 W m$^{-2}$ during the largest measured wind event (winds reaching 16.5 m s$^{-1}$). The implications for these measurements and their importance to the turbulent kinetic energy budget are discussed.
