Bouldin Alfalfa: 2017-04-11 09:40:00 (DOY 101)
Author: Daphne Szutu
Others: Elke Eichelmann, Isabel Reche

Summary: Regular data collection/cleaning, clip plots and veg height

2017-04-11
Bouldin Alfalfa

We arrived at 9:40. It was overcast and lightly sprinkling. They have not mowed the alfalfa yet.

Elke cleaned the EC and radiation sensors. The incoming SW sensor was really dirty. I collected met and USB GHG data and swapped camera cards.

Elke cleaned the camera enclosure windows (they looked pretty cleaned) and tightened the mount.

Isabel collected 5 clip plot biomass samples. I took 20 veg height measurements.

LI7500 readings:
CO2 450.1 umol/mol
H2O 529.6 mmol/m3
T 15.2 Celsius
P 101.6 kPa
SS 103.6 -> 107.3 after cleaning

LI7700 readings:
CH4: 2.7
RSSI: 36.8 -> 79.4 after cleaning

We left at 10:05.

Next Mowing: 2017-04-24

Veg Height (cm): Tape measure from ground to top of plant
48, 54, 50, 56, 65, 57, 44, 45, 61, 55, 66, 49, 60, 54, 51, 48, 52, 42, 45, 58, avg = 53, stdev = 6.85
