Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan, Joe, Hideke
Weather: clear, sunshine, rain recently, soil moist
Phenology
Summary
  1. check and download data at Tower, Floor, and Vaira
  2. Pump of Li-800 wasn’t running. Joe took it off.
  3. correct PC time with Cell Phone at tower and floor sites.
  4. collected grass sample for LAI
  5. dendrometer: Gretchen’s
  6. soil moisture
  7. spectrometer
  8. camera

Vaira_Grass Site
  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 14 v; 16 amps; 3.5 amps.
  3. Reading from Gillsonic screen before downloading data. (The value of H2O and CO2 should be in the range of 0 – 5 v.)

  1. downloading data YES!
  2. check the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor. YES!
  3. Check rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  4. Check calibration cylinders;

CO2 psig; flow psi.
N2 psig; flow psi.
Manually calibrate Li-800. Following Ted’s instruction: H:\IoneSavanna_2004\Tower_2004\CO2Profile\LI800_Calibration_Procedure_2Nov04.txt
Is the pump running‌ No running
How to check the CO2 values‌ Click “Ports/Flags” button to see which ports or flags is setting high. Pressure should be less than ambient value. When Flag 8 is high, it may indicate that RRR’s battery is low.
  1. close gate and set up fence. YES!

Toniz_Floor Site
  1. Fence and gate power: OK v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: OK v; amps; amps.
  3. Reading from Gillsonic screen before downloading data. (The value of H2O and CO2 should be in the range of 0 – 5 v.)
