We arrived about 09:20 PDT. It was breezy, sunny, and warm. Laurie went out and grabbed water samples and cleaned the tule tower instruments while Joe and I attended to the tower. The site remains very lush and green with old standing plant material mixed in as a sub-layer. I measured the tules near the tower to be about 2.7 m in height from the water surface.

The bird spikes on the sonic were a bit awry. Joe righted them. He also rinsed the solar panels which had paw print slide marks down the length of them.

CO2: 395 ppm (same after cleaning)
H2O: 660 mmol m-3 (same after cleaning)

p = 101.5 kPa
sos = 345.3 m s-1

Current 7700 readings:
CH4 = 1.93 ppm (same after cleaning)
RSSI = 58 (78 after cleaning)
The reservoir was full.

MET looked good.
