Summary: Swapped both 7500s, reinstalled li-820 but removed pump, Tower computer hung, reinstalled Vaisala CO2 probes, photos for UC equipment inventory.

I arrived about 11am with Siyan and Jan. It was clear, sunny and warm with very little wind. We met Rob on the way in. Tonziâ€™s pond was a little fuller and had some ducks in it. The road and ground was drier than last time. Cows were hanging out around the water station on the way in but gone on the way out.

I reinstalled the LI-820 sn CGA-556 in the CO2 profile system. It seemed to work okay so I left it there, but the pump was not pumping so well. I turned everything off and brought the pump in for testing. The data logger program also reads pressure from the now absent pressure controller instead of the Li-820. The program will need to be changed and a wire run to get the pressure from the LI-820 instead.

The tower computer was not responding. It had not collected phenocam images since the 16th. I need to figure out how to restart it each morning.

I swapped the sonic on the Tower and Siyan did the Floor:
Tower: sn 0035 off and sn 0418 on
Floor: sn 0073 off and sn 0042 on

I took photos for UC equipment inventory and redid the spikes on the Tower sonic. The pyranometer had some condensation in its dome.

Siyan did soil moisture, dbh, wells, and clip plots.

Jan reinstalled the Vaisala CO2 probes. We do not have new mounts or decided on new positions so they went back in pretty much where they were before.
