DWR Corn
2013-03-14

We arrived around 13:25 PDT. It was warm (~ 21 °C) with a mild breeze and high clouds. The field remains soft but there was no standing water. There must have been an animal party here over the weekend because there were a ton of various animal prints. Definitely raccoon and swan but possibly also a large cat of some sort. There was clearly dancing involved.

Dennis and I downloaded data and cleaned the flux and radiation instruments while Sara and Suzy did spectral measurements.

7500 readings:
CO2: 16.48 mmol m-3
H2O: 586 mmol m-3
diag: 249
sos = 344 m s-1
p = 101.9 kPa

MET was good.
