Tonzi: 2012-01-18 09:30:00 (DOY 18)
Author: Siyan Ma
Others: Sebastian

Summary: Tried to reinstall LI820 for co2 profile - didn't work, swapped co2 profile co2 and N2 tanks.


When: Date: 1/18/2012 , Day: 18 , Watch Time: 9:30 am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan, Sebastain
Weather: cloudy, very stable, almost no wind
Phenology: grasses looked more brown due to no rain, no oak leaves

Tonzi

New grass sprouting through old dead grass
Part of the tram and bare tree branches

Vaira:

New grass sprouting through old dead grass
Field, trees and clouds

Summary
  1. checked and downloaded data at Tower, Floor, and Vaira
  2. tried installing Li-820 back to the CO2 profile system but failed; found disconnection of the black power wire. The problem has been reported to Joe, and he will go to the field soon.
  3. Swap the N2 and CO2 tanks for calibrating the CO2 profile. (with Sebastian?s help.)
  4. Read dendrometers
  5. Measured soil moisture (Sebastian did it.)
  6. Measure groundwater well:
