West Pond
2019-09-18

Daphne and I arrived at 11:40. It was muggy with mostly cloudy skies starting to clear a bit. We tried to turn on the water but there was no water. Bryan says he turned off the main valve because Bruce was working on a broken valve. Bryan will try to isolate the broken valve and get water to WP and EP. Water level was 19cm at the tower. This wetland is beginning to look a bit yellow.

We put boards back in the drains and left the water inlet open at the middle mark on the valve casing. At the outlets there was no difference in water level upstream or downstream and no discernable flow. At the east outlet we put back eight boards (5.75, 4, 8.8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 14) for a total of 68.55cm. After replacing the boards the water was 27cm below the top of the boards. At the west outlet we put back four boards (9, 8.5, 8.5, 8.5) for a total of 34.8cm. After replacing the boards the water was 32cm below the top of the boards.

The 7500 read: 387.7ppm CO2, 774.0mmol/m3 H2O, 26.0C, 101.3kPa, 94.8SS
After cleaning: 396.5ppm CO2, 272.0mmol/m3 H2O, 98.7SS
The 7700 read: 2.0ppm CH4, 30.2RSSI – 67.4 after cleaning
The wash reservoir was 3/4 empty – refilled. The 7500 clock was 7min behind I reset it.

We collected the miniDot data and swapped its desiccant.
The water level desiccant was swapped
The camera window was clean.
I swapped the HMP60 fan removing the 24V fan and adding a 12V fan
Daphne measured LAI around the z-cam – z-cam images were downloaded and cleared
We installed an eosGP sensor sn GP20140026 – the end was just in a small depression with a little water

We left at 13:00
