Vaira: 2017-04-05 10:30:00 (DOY 95)
Author: Joe Verfaillie
Others: Siyan

Summary: Standard field work, met Jim Vaira, went to the pond.

Varia
2017-04-05

I arrived about 10:30 with Siyan. It was mostly clear, sunny and warm with little to no breeze. The trees looked pretty close to fully leafed out. The grass is growing. There was some dew on the grass. Cows were along the road. We met Jim Vaira who was out checking on things.

We did the standard data collection. Siyan took clip plots and measured grass height.

All seems well.

We went to the pond and collected the data. The pond is no longer spilling but more rain forecasted for this weekend. The water was super clear, we could easily see many feet deep. The staff gauge read 21.88ft.
