Better contrast to see the mirage.
See Ventura Overhead Hogan scene and the Mugu Peak part.

Elevation ~45-48 ft (lowish tide)
Warm 75 F air, cooler 58 F water....
Lots of mirage closer to Ventura side...the lower 3 platforms.
Stacked Superior mirage?
Upper 4 platforms compressed.
Peaks and ridges above largely unaffected.
Zoomed in first at Mesa Lane SB....then panned toward the East then SE ending at Mugu Peak and either Port Hueneme @ 40 mile or Mugu NAS at 46.
Exact same camera location as other vids @ UCSB.

High correlation of high horizon at Mesa and seeing more of coast (even if in mirage) to larger air / water temp difference & low RH
