Summary: Standard fieldwork - all seems well

I arrived at about 10:30 with Siyan. It was a mild fall day with good visibility – Mt Diablo was just visible from the tower top. There was a little rain last week, but everything is pretty brown here.

I collected the data and Siyan did the regular fieldwork.
The Tower read: 412.1ppm CO2, 518.8mmol/m3 H2O, 98.8kPa, 19.5C, 98.8SS
The Floor read: 408.7ppm CO2, 560.9mmol/m3 H2O, 99.0kPa, 20.7C, 99.3SS

The FLIR camera was running but the computer was hung up with some strange error. There were only about two days of images. I restarted the computer and it seemed to be running properly. I used the Nikon range finder to get a few readings on points in the FOV but need a photo to annotate.

Everything else seemed okay. The battery on the IRT seems to be dying.
