DWR Corn
2012-10-25

We arrived about 14:35 PDT. Sara and Laurie took spectral measurements. Joe and I checked the tower, cleaned the sensors, and downloaded the data and camera pics.

Tower readings:
CO2: 16.3 mmol m-3
H2O: 490 mmol m-3
diag: 248

MET looked good. Joe got a call that they might harvest this week, so we pulled the ground sensors. Joe reinstalled them in the weeds beneath the tower. We also folded the net radiometer 90° to be out of the corn field. It is now over the N-S channel that runs along our walking path out to the tower.
