Summary
  1. Swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Everything worked well.
  2. Checked and downloaded winflux and met data from PC at Tower, Floor, and Vaira.
  3. Joe fixed the CO2 profile system.
  4. The soil CO2 probes at Vaira need reinstall because of cow invasion and dry soil.
  5. Measured soil moisture
  6. Measure groundwater well
  7. Measure midday water potential
