Summary: Standard field work, collected all data - missed soil CO2 at Vaira, Collected soil samples for diffusion, Li800 pretty far off cal. Swapped 7500 at Vaira


When: Date: 2/27/2013 , Day: 058 , Watch Time: 10:30 am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan
Weather: clear, sunny
Phenology: green grasses; no-leaf on oak trees; lots of cows at both sites

Summary
  1. Checked and downloaded data from PC at Tower, Floor. No PC at Vaira anymore and images were collected by cards in a CR1000. Met and soil CO2 profile were downloaded by connecting to datalogger directly.
  2. Swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites. Everything worked well.
  3. Calibrated CO2 profile system; Zero and span seemed not stable.
  4. Collected soil samples for soil gas diffusion experiments.
  5. Collected grass and litter samples for grass LAI and litter dry weight.
  6. Read dendrometers
  7. Measured soil moisture
  8. Measure groundwater well:

Vaira_Grass Site
  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v
  2. Panel and Batteries: - v; - amps; - amps.
  3. No PC at Vaira anymore and images were collected by cards in a CR1000.
  4. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000.
  5. Swapped IRGA: sn 0418 came off and sn 0976 went on.
  6. Check the fans of air temp and relative humidity sensors at Vaira. YES!
  7. Met and soil CO2 profile data were downloaded by connecting to datalogger directly. Missed downloaded soil CO2 profile data although I connected the laptop to the grey cable in the PC box. Attention needed next visiting.
  8. Check levels of Radiation sensors, clear up surfaces.YES!
  9. Check rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  10. Closed gate and set up fence. YES!
  11. Collected soil samples for soil gas diffusion experiments.
  12. Collected grass and litter samples for grass LAI and litter dry weight.

Tonzi_Tower Site

  1. Fence and gate power: 12 v.
  2. Panel and Batteries: - 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.)

Tower_2013-02-27_1347
  1. downloading data from PC.
  2. Swapped the memory cards of CR1000.
  3. check the fans of air temp. and relative humidity sensors on the tower and the floor. YES!
  4. Check rain gage, make sure not clogged. YES!
  5. Check calibration cylinders;

CO2 400 psig; flow 20 psi; 421.63 ppm.
N2 600 psig; flow 20 psi.
Is the pump running‌ YES!
