Summary: Calibrated 7700, re-tested tipping bucket, adjusted SHF plate

Bouldin Corn

Joe and I arrived at 15:05 for a maintenance trip. It was sunny and warm, relatively calm, with hazy horizons. Some corn fields south of Hwy 12 are flooded, and one field was full of geese. A worker was clearing out the trench by the duck club.

We calibrated the LI-7700, sn TG1-0155. Before calibrating, Joe cleaned the sensor thoroughly, including the cap.

LI7700 readings:
(before cleaning --> after cleaning --> after calibration)
CH4 1.97ppm --> 1.95 --> 1.95
RSSI 55 --> 91 --> 90

LI-7500 readings:
CO2 410ppm
H2O 440ppm
T 26.9C
P 101.1kPa
SS 100

We cleaned and tested the tipping bucket sn 65548-615. Last week, we got 94 tips and adjusted the set screws by one half turn. We connected the bucket to a CR23x and dribbled 475ml of water through it. This should result in 100 tips – we got 97 tips. We adjusted the set screws in the bottom by one half turn clockwise (+2-3%).

Joe dug out soil heat flux plate #2. It was upside down and he reinstalled it in the correct orientation.

We left at 15:55.
