Summary

Since Joe took care of swapping memory cards of CR1000s and checked and downloaded met data from PC at Tower, Floor, and Vaira. See his notes on details.
Joe worked on the CO2 profile system
Read dendrometers
Measured soil moisture
Measured grass height
Measure groundwater well
Tree dbh survey
More data were collected and sent to bmetdata@gmail.com
