6038 2022-10-20 Lab none Installed Tonzi PAR Sensor Reflected Installed at Tonzi to replace sn 030382 that has been spiky.
6035 2022-10-19 Experiment none Removed Lab none I removed this sensor from the bike kit to use at Tonzi. I also spliced about 3m of extra length on to its cable.
5932 2022-08-10 Lab none Installed Experiment none Installed on the back of Robert's e-bike for his urban heat island transect in Oakley
5669 2022-02-02 East End PAR Sensor Undercanopy B Removed Lab none Removed from lower location south of the tower at East End. This sensor was disconnected from the data logger two weeks before
5230 2021-03-30 Lab none Installed East End none Installed in EE wetland to measure undercanopy PAR. This sensor is S of the tower mounted on a grounding rod. The sensor is sitting in an open patch a few cm above the water surface.
5113 2021-02-10 Cal Kit PAR Sensor Incoming Removed Lab none Removed from TZ Tower after three weeks of inter comparison with the AMP standard
5057 2021-01-21 Lab none Installed Cal Kit PAR Sensor Incoming Installed at TZ as part of the inter-comparison kit to test PAR, T/RH on the top of the Tower.
4935 2020-10-26 Lab none Repair Lab none The cable insulation on this sensor was rotted. I cut the cable off near the sensor and spliced on a new cable. I also added an aluminum bracket to provide strain relief and used liquid electrical tape to seal the hole where the cable enters the sensor. The white wire (+) had a nick in its insulation right at the point where it entered the sensor that I covered with heat shrink.
