Sherman Barn
2018-07-11

I arrived with Daphne, Kuno and Kyle at about 9:15. It was sunny and hot with a little hazy and a nice breeze from the WNW. Most of the tall weeds in the field are brown, but the grass in the lower areas is still mostly green. Cows are in the field.

We installed the eddy and met equipment including the Phenocam. Heather and Tyler arrived later and finished installing five chambers in a corral enclosure north of the cow fence. When we left at 12:50, everything was running.

The 7500 read: 410ppm CO2, 620mmol/m3 H2O, 27.5C, 101.2kPa, 98SS
The 7700 read: 1.9ppm CH4, 70RSSI

Both gas analyzers were calibrated yesterday. The correct config file was uploaded, pressure coefficients updated and the 7550 box was reset. The wash reservoir was filled. The rain bucket in on a T-post in the NW corner of the cow fence.

Kyle added diagonal braces to all the 4x4 corner posts. The posts look and feel real solid now.

System power is on a 110VAC to 12VDC, 8A power converter.
