Tonzi: 2016-05-10 10:30:00 (DOY 131)
Author: Siyan Ma
Others: Joe, Elke

Summary: Swapped 7500s, standard field work, started tree survey, midday water potential, grasses seeding

When: Date: 5/10/2016 , Day: 131 , Watch Time: 10:30 am .

Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch

Who: Siyan, Joe, Elke

Weather: clear, sunny

Phenology: grasses are in the filling stage; oak leaves looked larger and darker than previous years; more dead branches and twigs; two trees around the tower were dead.
