When: Date: 12/27/2007 ,
Day: 361 ,
Watch Time: 11:00 .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan
Weather:
cloudy, cold, frozen
Phenology:
At Vaira, green grasses were still under yellow standing litters. At Tonzi, grasses was less than those at
Vaira. Surface rain water in the bucket
by the side of Tower was frozen.
Summary
- EC systems at the three sites
were working well. (A few days ago,
Ted replaced the PC at the floor site because the PC kept on reboot all
the time.)
- Voltage meter of Vaira fence looks broken because the pointer was
always on the far right side even though the switch was off.
- Grass samples were collected
for LAI and phenology in Tower and Vaira.
- Dendrometer
- Spectrum measurement
- Soil TDR measurement wasn’t
taken because Ben needed it at Shieman
Island.
Vaira_Grass
Site
- Fence and gate power: >12 v.
- Panel and Batteries: 13.3 v; 5.2 amps; 3.2
amps.
- Reading from Gillsonic screen
before downloading data. (The value
of H2O and CO2 should be in the range of 0 – 5 v.)

- downloading data – Yes.
- Swap Li-7500 analyzer. (Remove SN #73; install SN 42).
- check the fans of air temp.
and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. OK.
- Check MD-9 system connections.
OK.
- Check levels of Radiation
sensors, clear up surfaces. Yes.
- Closed gate and set up fence.
- Voltage meter of Vaira fence
looks broken because the pointer was always on the far right side even
though the switch was off.
Tonzi_Tower Site
- Fence and gate power: 12 v.
- Panel and Batteries: 13.7 v; 0.0
amps; 5.2
amps.
- Reading from Gillsonic screen

- downloading data Yes.
- Swap Li-7500 analyzer.
(Remove SN #0976; install SN 418).
- check the fans of air temp.
and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor. Yes.
- Check calibration cylinders;
CO2 500
psig; flow 20 psi.
(Tank: 422.2 ppm)
N 2 500
psig; flow 20 psi.
Manually
calibrate Li-800. Following Ted’s
instruction: H:\IoneSavanna_2004\Tower_2004\CO2Profile\LI800_Calibration_Procedure_2Nov04.txt
Is the pump running Yes.
How to check the CO2 values
Click “Ports/Flags” button to see which ports or flags is setting
high. Pressure should be less than
ambient value. When Flag 8 is high, it
may indicate that RRR’s battery is low.
