Summary

  1. Joe and Daphne took down the old set of IRGA and Sonic at each site
  2. Joe swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites.
  3. Joe checked and downloaded phenocam images and met data from PC at Floor and Vaira.
  4. Read dendrometers
  5. Measured soil moisture
  6. Measure groundwater well and download GlobalWater data
  7. Measure midday water potential of oak leaves
  8. Collect grass samples for LAI
  9. Spectrum of Vaira grassland
  10. Download IRT data
