Summary: Site super green. Data collection, water samples, wasp control. Forerunner reading high.

West Pond
2014-08-19

We arrived about 14:00 PDT. It was warm and sunny with a nice breeze. The site is super green, unlike Mayberry. Sara took water samples at the inlet, outlet, and tower. I collected data and sprayed another wasp nest under the boardwalk.

The Forerunner CO2 probe was reading quite high (4.93 V, equaling almost 20,000 ppm). I took it out of the water and watched it drop to near 1 V until I put it back (it was still dropping, but I was satisfied that it was working). When I put it back, I lowered the Forerunner 1-2 cm so that the white strip was fully submerged.

7500 readings:
CO2 = 386 ppm (same after cleaning)
H2O = 750 mmol m-3 (same after cleaning)
signal strength = 82.2% (81.5% after cleaning)
p = 100.6 kPa
t = 25.4 C
sos = 349.8 m s-1

7700 readings:
CH4 = 1.9 ppm (same after cleaning)
RSSI = 65% (73% after cleaning)
Reservoir full.

Met looked good.
