Summary: Standard fieldwork, trees starting to leaf out, staked base of solar panels.

Vaira
2015-03-02

I arrived with Siyan about 10:00am. It was cool and blustery with lots of clouds. The grass looks very green and vigorous. The water hole was full and there were puddles on the road. The trees have begun to leaf out. The grass outside the fence has all the tops grazed off.

I collected data and added wooden stakes to the bottom of the main solar panels. I also moved the bottom of the Soil CO2 panels up on top of a boardwalk and nailed them to the boards. Grasses were already beginning to shade the bottom of the panels.
