Summary: Standard field work, pre-dawn water potential, installed new CO2 soil probes


When: Date: 4/8/2014 , Day: 98 , Watch Time: 6:30 am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan
Weather: clear, sunny, a perfect spring day
Phenology: oak leaves expanded; grassland had while, purpl flowers.

Early morning on the oak savannaGreen grass and wild flowersgreen pasture and flowers at Vaira siteClose up of grass going to seed

Summary
  1. Did pre-dawn water potential measurements for oak leaves and pine needles
  2. Swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Everything worked well.
  3. Checked and downloaded phencam, winflux and met data from PC at Tower, Floor, and Vaira.
  4. The CO2 profile system was calibrated on site. Zero had big offset.
  5. Checked the soil CO2 probes at Tonzi and Vaira; install new probes at Tonzi open sites.
  6. Read dendrometers
  7. Measured soil moisture
  8. Measured grass height
  9. Measure groundwater well

Vaira_Grass Site

  2. Downloaded Phenocam images.
  3. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000.
  4. Checked the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. YES!
  5. Downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data:
