Summary: Regular data collection/cleaning, windy day

2021-04-27
East End

I arrived at 14:50 PDT. It was warm and breezy and the wetland is greening up slowly. The staff gauge read 41 cm. No unexpected wasp encounters today. There were a few sprinkles of rain a few days ago on Sunday, but that might be the last of the rain for this season.

I downloaded met, camera, and USB GHG data. I cleaned the flux and rad sensors (LWin sensor was muddy) and topped off the wash reservoirâ€”the replacement filter I installed last time seems to be good and the reservoir is no longer leaking to empty between site visits.

LI-7500 readings:
CO2 382ppm
H2O 305ppm
T 27.0C
P 101.4kPa
SS 89 --> 100 after cleaning
LI7700 readings:
CH4 1.9 after cleaning
RSSI 55 --> 77 after cleaning

As I was driving south back toward the levee, I saw a small white shaggy animal scurry off the road and into the reeds. Reminded me of a sheep dog puppy, but I didnâ€™t see any sheep or goats around.

I left at 15:20 PDT.
