Summary: Pressure bomb regulator was acting up; Tower flux system stopped taking data at 9:30 of the previous Saturday.

6/7/01. 3:00 Standard time (4:00 am Daylight Saving Time).
- Measured pre-dawn leaf water potentials, starting at Set Q (near understory tower)
- 4:03 am StdT, sky starting to get light
- Set Q potentials ~-12, Set P potentials ~-8.
- Measured LAI of T3.

- Continued to measure water potentials every two hours:

6:00, 8:00 (Std time)…14:00 (midday), 17:00 (last)

- ~Before 8:00, Ted Hehn fixed pressure bomb regulator, because was giving wrong tank pressure (sticky needle) and stopping chamber gauge at -29 bar. It appears that the pressure bomb had been dropped, as the nozzle to screw into the tank was warped and very difficult to turn. Ted says he will buy a new regulator.

- The nitrogen tank had to be replenished for each set of measurements (tank starting at 1500 psi dropped to 900 psi after approx.
10 leaves at <-30 bar. Below 900 psi is not sufficient to go below -30 bar in the chamber.
