Summary: Regular maintenance, added solar shield for HMP at the aux tower

Dennis and I arrived at Rush Ranch at ~9:10am, there was no fire warning and we drove to the tower location. It was sunny, breezy, and slightly hazy.

Upon arrival, we noticed some foxtail overgrowth inside of the perimeter. At the main tower, I collected the MET, flux, and camera data. The LI77 box was 4/5 full. Dennis cleaned the MET and flux sensors. The diffusePAR sensor was very dirty.

7500 read: 421ppm CO2, 399mmol/m3 H2O, 18.3 C, 101.8kPa, 82SS --96 after cleaning
7700 read: 2.06ppm CH4, 24RSSI – 76 after cleaning

At the auxiliary tower, I collected the CR1000_annex data, and Dennis added the solar shield for HMP on the tower. Then, we put the HMP sensor in the shield.

We left the field at ~9:50am and went to Hill Slough.
