Summary

  1. Joe and Daphne set up new sets of IRGA and Sonic at three towers.
  2. Joe swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Everything worked well.
  3. Checked and downloaded phenocam images at Vaira
  4. Joe let flux CR1000 collect phenocam images (up to 20 days)
  5. Read dendrometers
  6. Measured soil moisture
  7. Measured grass height
  8. Measure groundwater well and download GlobalWater data
  9. Measure midday water potential of oak leaves
  10. Spectrum of Vaira grassland
  11. Download IRT data

Vaira_Grass Site

  1. Fence worked.
  2. Downloaded Phenocam images.
  3. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000. (Joe)
  4. Joe and Daphne set up new sets of IRGA and Sonic
  5. Checked the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. YES!
  6. Downloaded met and soil CO2 profile data (have been sent back to Berkele).
  7. Checked levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces. YES!
  8. Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  9. Closed gate and set up fence. YES!

Tonzi_Tower Site

  1. Fence worked.
  2. Joe set up new sets of IRGA and Sonic
  3. swapped the memory cards of CR1000. (Joe)
  4. download Phenocam images. Yes!
  5. checked the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor. YES!
  6. Checked rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  7. Screens of met dataloggers: (because the PC was crashed, data were downloaded at each data logger; Joe still worked on the problems of the data logger for tower met data.

CR23X3 – floor-Met

CR23X6 – tower-Met

CR10X2 – floor-Met

Soil CO2 profile: CR23X5 – soil CO2 profile

  1. CO2 profile system (under construction)
  2. closed gate and set up fence. YES!

Toniz_Floor Site

  1. Fence worked.
  2. Daphne set up new sets of IRGA and Sonic
  3. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000.
  4. Closed gate and set up fence. YES!
