Vaira: 2014-01-07 09:00:00 (DOY 7)
Author: Joe Verfaillie
Others: Siyan

Summary: Tested SMS text messaging - not enough signal, standard fieldwork, clipping litter, fixed fence.

I arrived about 9am with Siyan. It was clear, sunny and mild with little to no wind. In areas where there is very sparse litter only a broad leaf herb is still green, most of the new grass has died. But in areas where there still some standing litter the grass and other things are hanging on.

I tried to setup the data to be sent by SMS text message. It seems like it all worked okay, but there is not enough signal on the T-Mobil network there. Maybe a better modem with external antenna might work. Or maybe I can find an ATT prepaid SIM card that we can use. I put everything back to the way it was. The screen was having a hard time coming up. When it finally did it was reporting out of range and showing only a portion of the desktop.

I collected all data, but the soilCO2 seemed short. Either the data logger wrapped its memory or the collection missed some. It’s probably not possible to recover it now.

Siyan did the standard fieldwork and clipped some more of the litter inside the fence. On wire on the fence was broken and we fixed it.
