Summary
  1. Measured pre-dawn water potential. Joe brought a full tank (2250 psi).
  2. Downloaded data and swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites
  3. Joe swapped the PC at Tower.
  4. Read dendrometers
  5. Measured soil moisture
  6. Measured grass height
  7. Measure groundwater well

Vaira_Grass Site
  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Downloaded Phenocam images. (Joe)
  3. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000. (Joe)
  4. Checked the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. YES!
  5. Downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data: (Joe)
  6. Checked levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces.YES!
  7. Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  8. Closed gate and set up fence. YES!

Tonzi_Tower Site

  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
