Others: Alison

Summary: Standard fieldwork, left electric fence off at Vaira, showing Alison the sites

When: Date: 7/28/2016 , Day: 210 , Watch Time: 10:00 am .

Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch

Who: Siyan, Alison

Weather: clear, sunny, hot

Phenology: dead grasses, oak canopy had less leaves; a lot of dead branches

A little water left in small pond and dead grassFence in yellow grass under a blue sky

Summary

  1. Swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Everything worked well.
  2. Checked and downloaded phenocam images and met data from PC at Floor and Vaira.
  3. Calibrate CO2 profile system
  4. Checked the soil CO2 probes at Tonzi and Vaira;
  5. Read dendrometers
  6. Measured soil moisture
  7. Measure groundwater well
  8. Measure midday water potential of oak leaves
  9. Collect litter samples

Vaira_Grass Site

  1. Downloaded Phenocam images.
  2. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000.
  3. Checked the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. YES!
  4. Downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data:
  5. Checked levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces.YES!
  6. Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  7. Closed gate and set up fence. YES! (but didn’t turn on the electronic one for reducing fire risk since the site was supper dry).

Tonzi_Tower Site

  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. swapped the memory cards of CR1000.
  3. download Phenocam images. Yes!
  4. checked the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor. YES!
  5. Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  6. Screens of met dataloggers

CR23X3 – floor-Met

CR23X6 – tower-Met

CR10X2 – floor-Met

Soil CO2 profile: CR23X5 – soil CO2 profile
