2024-12-04 | RPI0W-002 | RPI0W | Installed | none | Installed in the Bouldin alfalfa/wheat field. The wheat sprouts are only a few cm tall. |
2024-12-19 | RPI0W-002 | RPI0W | Removed | Removed from the BA wheat field because it only had partial photos from the past 2 weeks. I think this enclosure needs better weatherproofing. | |
2024-12-19 | RPI0W-007 | RPI0W | Removed | Removed from the BA wheat field because this camera is dead from water intrusion. | |
2025-01-15 | RPI0W-002 | RPI0W | Installed | none | Installed south of the tower on the ground for upward looking gap fraction in the wheat. I had to reset its clock even though it was off for weeks in the lab without losing its clock. Maybe I accidentally jiggled the RTC at some point after powering it off for the final time in the lab. |

2020-12-18 | FD20180047 | eosFD | Removed | Forced Diffusion A | Removed from Bouldin Alfalfa. This one has high temperature start up issues and was running on a relay to restart it every night. I removed the relay too but did not update the CR1000 program. |
2020-12-18 | FD20160001 | eosFD | Installed | Forced Diffusion A | Installed to replace the FD Chamber with the high temperature startup problems. |
2021-07-20 | FD20160001 | eosFD | Maintenance | Forced Diffusion A | Performance check done. Referenced reset to 400ppm. Average Flux: -0.1, 0.07 STDEV Average ATM: 402.1ppm, 48.5C Average Soil: 398.1ppm, 48.2C |
2023-04-11 | FD20160001 | eosFD | Removed | Forced Diffusion A | Removed from BA underneath the tower. The data has been super noisy since mid March. The cable is still on the tower. |
2023-05-09 | FD20180026 | eosFD | Moved | Forced Diffusion A | Moved from BC to BA to replace sn FD20160001 which broke. We should have soil CO2 flux data from Whendee's chamber measurements at BC. |
2024-10-09 | FD20180026 | eosFD | Removed | Forced Diffusion A | Removed from BA tower and brought back to the lab. The BA field is getting plowed. Joe may use this FD chamber at Tonzi/Vaira. |

2018-11-02 | A000591 | Mark I | Notes | Weather Station A | Arable e-mailed to say sn A000591 which has a bad backup temperature sensor and requested we send it back.

We planned to remove this Arable on 2018-10-04, but instead removed sn A000251 from BC and sent that Arable back to the factory.
