Summary: Connected LED sensor to Tule Tower data logger and updated program - still has problems, pulled water pressure for testing.

I arrived with Dennis about 12:30PST. It was cold and foggy with little to no wind. The foggy lifted while we were at the site and it became sunny. The cattails are continuing to yellow.

I connected the LED sensor to the Tule Tower AM16/32 and updated the CR10X program after downloading the data. This fixed the problem of the LED input locations not being displayed, but the values from the LED sensor looked bad and the conductivity value still seemed bad. I?ll have to test the program in the lab.

Dennis added some water to the LI7700 reservoir. The 7700 RSSI was 56 so I did not clean the mirrors.

We pulled the water pressure sensor and it was reading -0.31 in atmosphere. The well was full of sediment. After testing in the lab, I think I will install the water pressure at the Tule Tower.

We left a bottle of DI water at the site.
