Summary: Regular data collection/cleaning, more cattails chewed by caterpillars, water level going down
2021-08-04 Sherman Wetland Carlos and I arrived at 16:50 PDT. It was breezy and warm. The caterpillars continue their cattail buffet—many more cattails looked chewed this time, maybe about 50% of the cattails we can see from the boardwalk/tower looked chewed. I scrubbed the staff gauge a bit more since the water level has gone down. The staff gauge read 82cm. Patty has removed her equipment and power line. There is one gas tank for us to take back the next time we bring a dolly. I downloaded met, camera, USB GHG, and miniDOT data. Carlos cleaned flux and rad sensors and topped off the wash reservoir. LI-7500 readings: CO2 397ppm H2O 700ppm T 27.8C P 101.1kPa SS 97--> 99 after cleaning LI7700 readings: CH4 1.9ppm RSSI 49--> 81 after cleaning We left around 17:10 PDT. |
