Summary: Standard fieldwork, Joe worked on Tower sonic, Dennis fixed soil CO2 power, midday water potential, fixed Vaira HMP45 fan

When: Date: 5/6/2015 , Day: , Watch Time: 10:00 am . Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch Who: Siyan, Dennis, Joe, and Ana Weather: clear, sunny Phenology: grasses still green but almost done; a lot of yellow flowers; deep layer soil moisture good; the small pond at Vaira full of water Summary Swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Joe checked the sonic at the Tower. PC’s clock was about 10 minutes faster. Checked and downloaded winflux and met data from PC at Tower and Floor. Checked and downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data at Vaira. calibrated the CO2 profile system Dennis and Joe fixed the power issue of soil CO2 profile system at Tonzi. Read dendrometers Measured soil moisture Measured grass height at Vaira (by Dennis) Measure groundwater well Measured midday water potentials of oak leaves, pine needles, broadleaf forbs, and annual grasses. Vaira_Grass Site Downloaded Phenocam images. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000. Checked the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. Joe fixed the fan. Downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data: Checked levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces.YES! (by Ana) Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES! Closed gate and set up fence. YES! Tonzi_Tower Site Fence and gate power: 12 v. downloaded Winflux data from PC. YES! swapped the memory cards of CR1000. Joe checked the sonic and 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 Checked CO2 profile: calibrated. (screen shots were left in the field PC.) 9. closed gate and set up fence. YES! Midday grass and broadleaf water potential Broadleaf,-3.5,-5,-4.5 Annual,-18,-20,-10 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!
