Author: Siyan Ma
Others: Joe

Summary: Standard fieldwork, hot and dry, no manual soil moisture due to dead battery, midday water potential, last litter collection.

When: Date: 6/15/2017 , Watch Time: 9:30 am .

Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch

Who: Siyan, Joe

Weather: clear, sunny

Phenology:

A little water left in the small pondBrown hills and blue sky

Pink flowers in dead grassGreen leaves on oak twig

Summary

  1. Joe showed me how to swap memory stick for the new set of Licor and Gill system.
  2. Joe checked and downloaded phenocam images and met data from PC at Vaira.
  3. Read dendrometers
  4. Did not measured soil moisture due to low battery
  5. Measure groundwater well and download GlobalWater data. The cable needs to be replaced.
  6. Measure midday water potential of oak leaves
  7. Collect grass samples within 400x4 cm2 for biomass.
  8. Spectrum of Vaira grassland
  9. Download IRT data
