Summary: Regular data collection, no spectra, went to the pond.

Varia
2018-09-13

I arrived at about 13:20 with Daphne. It was warm with some high thin clouds. It was not backing hot but still very dry and dusty. The water hole near the road was bone dry.

We quickly collected the tower and soil moisture data and then went to the pond. The pond water level was 13.94ft. There was some jiggles in the data that might have been caused by cows tripping over the cable conduit. The cows have been working over vegetation on the levee. I can’t imagine cockle burs taste all that good.

We left at about 14:00
