Summary: standard fieldwork, removed old eddy system

Vaira
2017-05-24

I arrived about 10am with Daphne and Siyan. It is much drier now and most of the grass has turned golden. Some of the low spots are still green and a couple of species near the tower are still green.

We removed the old eddy system sonic sn 000028, PCI sn 000192, LI-7500 sn 0073, CR1000 sn 23865, CFM sn 4994. We removed the box that housed the CR1000 and sonic PCI along with all the cables. Some reorganization of the computer box was necessary. The quad serial port adapter is now put away under the keyboard rack.

The 7500A read: 400.65ppm CO2, 505.8mmol/m3, 26.35C, 99.01kPa, 94.1SS – 99.6 after cleaning.

Siyan did the standard fieldwork.

We did not go to the pond as it has been sending its data by radio.
