Daphne and I arrived at about 12:30 PST. We are a little late today due to a stop in the Delta. It is mostly overcast here and cool. It doesn’t look like much rain has fallen in the last couple weeks. The grasses and herbs are still trying but should be getting too cold soon. The trees still look pretty green.

This was just quick smash and grab. Daphne did the well, spectra and collected data from the north FD chamber on the Delta laptop.

I collected the met, flux, camera and west FD data. All seemed well.
The 7500 read: 433.5ppm CO2, 432.1mmol/m3 H2O, 16.7C, 99.5kPa, 112.0SS

There was a dead woodpecker at the base of the radiation tower. It looked like its beak was broken but otherwise unmolested.

We left at about 13:00 PST.
