Tonzi: 2007-03-02 09:30:00 (DOY 61)
Author: Siyan Ma
Others: Youngryel


When: Date: 3/2/2007 , Day: 61 , Watch Time: 9:30am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan and Young-Ryel
Weather: clear, very windy on the top of the tower
Phenology: green grass, more germination after recent rains, grass starts taking up carbon!
Summary
  1. Check EC system, swap Li-7500 at all three sites, and download data. All is well.
  2. Radiation Tram was parking in the middle of the track.
  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: 14.0 v; 13.9 amps; 2.5 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. swaping Li-7500: remove #41, install #73
  3. clean up the surfaces of Delta PAR sensor, KZ PARs, 4-way radiation sensors.
  4. check CR23X: BUSY WITH COM.
  5. spectrometer measurement was taken by Youngryel.
  6. Closed gate and set up fence.

Tonzi_Tower Site

  1. Fence and gate power: >12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 13.3 v; 0.0 amps; 5.8 amps.
  3. Reading from Gillsonic screen before downloading data. (The value of H2O and CO2 should be in the range of 0 – 5 v.)

  1. downloading data OK
  2. swaping Li-7500: remove #065, install #0976.
  3. check the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor.
  4. Check calibration cylinders;

CO2 900 psig; flow 18 psi.
N2 1200 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: 13.7 v; 10.4 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.)
