Author: Joe Verfaillie
Others: Kuno

Summary: Swapped RH/T fan, straightened solar panels, checked on pond CR10x.

Vaira
2024-02-21

Kuno and I arrived at about 14:30. It was clear sunny and mild. There are still puddles in the road but it hasn’t rained in about a week. There might have been a shower two days ago. The grass is green but largely held in check by the cows so far.

Kuno did the well reading while I did spectral measurements. At the tower I collected Flux, met, camera and FD data. The RH/T fan was dead - I replaced it. One of the solar panels was askew again - I straightened it and tried to diagonally brace it with a fence post. I cleaned the radiometers. Seems I missed downloading the soilvue data - should still be on the data logger for next time.
The 7500 read: 427.6ppm,463.7mmol/m3, 20.6C, 100.1kPa, 99.9SS

We went to the pond because I was missing the last few days from the last data download. A full data download didn't find the missing days but there was nothing missing since the last visit. Try to swap the CR10x next time?

We left at about 15:30
