Summary
  1. Nitrogen tank pressure is low: N2 650 psig;
  2. measured pre-dawn leaf water potential (~10 bar)
  3. swapped Li-7500 at Tower nd Vaira
  4. checked and downloaded data at Tower, Floor, and Vaira. Three systems worked well.
  5. Calibrated Li-800 in the field (bring the copy of Ted’s instruction).
  6. samples of oak leaves
  7. dendrometer
  8. soil moisture
  9. groundwater well

Vaira_Grass Site
  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 12.0 v; 6.1 amps; 2.2 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. swaping Li-7500 Analyzer. (Remove SN# 418 ; install SN# 41 )
  2. Swapped a new fan for air temp. and relative humidity sensor at Vaira.
  3. Check CR23X: Sys_vot = 13.48

Screen shot of Vaira data logger table
  1. Check levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces. YES!
  2. Check rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  3. Closed gate and set up fence. YES!

Tonzi_Tower Site

  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 13.2 v; 0.0 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.)

  1. downloading data YES!

Screen shot of tower disk free space
  1. swaping Li-7500 Analyzer. (Remove SN# 976 ; install SN# 42 )
  2. check the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor.
  3. Check rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  4. Check calibration cylinders;

CO2 850 psig; flow 20 psi; 431.25 ppm.
N2 650 psig; flow 20 psi.
Manually calibrate Li-800. Following Ted’s instruction: H:\IoneSavanna_2004\Tower_2004\CO2Profile\LI800_Calibration_Procedure_2Nov04.txt
Is the pump running‌YES!

Screen shot of Li-800 calibration span post-cal
  1. close gate and set up fence. YES! The voltage is less than 12v. Checked the fence around, didn’t see broken wire.

Toniz_Floor Site
  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: 12.3 v; 0.0 amps; 0.2 amps.
