Summary: Very wet, standard data collection, computer not sending data for unknown reason, did not go to pond

Vaira
2017-01-17

I arrived about 10:30 with Siyan and Miriam Johnston. Miriam is a PhD student visiting from the Moorcroft lab at Harvard University. She will be running a model using Tonzi/Vaira data. Things are very wet and I noticed a couple of trees that had fallen over. The Delta and Central Valley were foggy but here it’s just hazy and cool with a breeze from the north. The Sacramento River is running high with some flooding on the river side of the levees. The Cosumnes is a little bit lower than two weeks ago.

We collected data. Siyan did soil moisture and spectral measurements.

The computer has not been sending data, but I could not see anything wrong with it. The task scheduler said the task have been running, but no entries in the log file. I ran everything manually and crossed my fingers.

We did not go to the pond today.
