When: Date: 2/4/2007 , Day: 35 , Watch Time: 11:30am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan
Weather: clear, slightly cloudy, warm
Phenology: grass didn’t grow very much at both sites. Grass at Tonzi looks yellow-green. This is a dry winter. Mr.Tonzi’s reservoir was almost empty. Met Mr. Tonzi. He is going to cut more woods for markets. He mentioned 1975 was as dry as this winter. His neighbors want to sell their ranch to developers to make money. He was worried about it because the changes would make it difficult for them who still wanted to stay and keep the oak woodland. One hundred years, the rate of land was 6 dollars per ace, but nowadays it costs 3000 dollars per acre. Gas was 10 cents per gallon one hundred years ago. Last year there was not many acorns, he wondered how about this year.
Summary
  1. Check EC system and download data. All is well.
  2. Radiation Tram was parking in the charging station.
  3. Power on Floor site is OK.
  4. Soil CO2 profile worked well, but no power on the fences. Didn’t find broken wire‌
  5. dendrometer, soil moisture, and spectrume were measured. Dendrometers need reset because some have been out of range!!!

Vaira_Grass Site
  1. Fence and gate power: >12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 13.2 v; 7.9 amps; 2.7 amps.
  3. Reading from Gillsonic screen before downloading data. (The value of H2O and CO2 should be in the range of 0 – 5 v.)

  1. downloading data OK
  2. check the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor.
  3. Check calibration cylinders;

CO2 1500 psig; flow 18 psi.
N2 1300 psig; flow 20 psi.
Manually calibrate Li-800. Following Ted’s instruction: H:\IoneSavanna_2004\Tower_2004\CO2Profile\LI800_Calibration_Procedure_2Nov04.txt
Is the pump running‌ OK
  1. close gate and set up fence. OK

Toniz_Floor Site
  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 13.6 v; 12.0 amps; 1.8 amps.
  3. Reading from Gillsonic screen before downloading data. (The value of H2O and CO2 should be in the range of 0 – 5 v.)
