Summary: Standard field work.
When: Date: 3/13/2013 , Day: 072 ,
Watch Time: 9:00 am .
Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranch
Who: Siyan Joe
Weather: sunny, warm
Phenology:
 
Figure 1. no-leaf on oak trees, but Joe found two ‘evergreen’ oak
trees near the soil CO2 fencing area. Shrubs had new leaves. About 11 cows
around.
 
Figure 2. notice difference in grass
appearance between those in and out fence at Vaira. About 40 cows around the water
hole.

Summary
- Checked and downloaded data from PC at Tower, Floor. At
Floor, 10Hz raw data recorded by PC WinFlux had naming problem, skipping
Day 60. Would check next visit. Others worked well.
- Joe downloaded data at Vaira and got screen shops by
connecting to each datalogger directly.
- Joe swapped memory cards of CR1000s at three sites.
- Joe upgraded Tower PC, replacing PC208W with
LoggerNet. So, PC can talk to CR1000.
- Calibrated CO2 profile system; Zero and span seemed
not stable.
- Collected grass at Vaira in and out of fence to check
grazing effects
- Read dendrometers
- Measured soil moisture
- Measure groundwater well:
