When: Date: 8/5/2014 , Day: 217 , Watch Time: 9:40 am . Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch Who: Siyan Weather: very cloudy; not too much wind under the canopy Phenology: golden grasses; oak leaves started change color, 10-20%; some individual trees had 100%. Summary Swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Everything worked well. Checked and downloaded winflux and met data from PC at Tower, Floor, and Vaira. Everything worked well. The CO2 profile system wasn’t calibrated completely on site due to span value -> INF; zero is ok, though. Read dendrometers Measured soil moisture Measure groundwater well Vaira_Grass Site Fence and gate power: 12 v. Downloaded Phenocam images. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000. Checked the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. YES! Downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data: Checked levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces.YES! Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES! Closed gate and set up fence. No! The fence regulator disconnected with the solar panel. The dead thing was still there, much smaller. Tonzi_Tower Site Fence and gate power: 12 v. downloaded Winflux data from PC. YES! swapped the memory cards of CR1000. download Phenocam images. Yes! checked the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor. YES! Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES! Downloaded met data from PC tz7 and tz9 now are two big files; the new PC didn’t split the files into daily file. Checked CO2 profile: Is the pump running‌ YES! Calibration couldn’t complete because the reading went up to 600pm when span button was on. Zero was OK, though. 9. closed gate and set up fence. YES! Toniz_Floor Site Fence and gate power: 12 v. downloaded Winflux data from PC. YES! Swapped the memory cards of CR1000. downloaded met data from PC. YES! CR23X3 – floor-Met CR23X6 – tower-Met CR10X2 – floor-Met Soil CO2 profile: CR23X5 – soil CO2 profile (Everything’s working. I forgot copying snapshots this time.) Closed gate and set up fence. YES!
