Summary

  1. Joe swapped memory cards of CR1000s at Tonzi tower and Vaira; I swapped it at Floor tower.
  2. Joe worked on transferring half-hourly data back to Berkeley lab via cell data plan.
  3. Checked the soil CO2 probes at Tonzi and Vaira;
  4. Read dendrometers
  5. Measured soil moisture
  6. Measured grass height
  7. Measure groundwater well
  8. Measure midday water potential of oak leaves
