When: Date: 3/16/2015 , Day: 75 , Watch Time: 10:00 am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan, Ana
Weather: clear, sunny
Phenology: all trees have leaves; pretty color; this is the second dry-winter year in a row; about two weeks earlier than the average leaf-out date.

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.
calibrated the CO2 profile system
Read dendrometers
Measured soil moisture
Measured grass height
Measure groundwater well
