Wednesday – 07/14/2010

Heading up to reinstall all dataloggers and collect another 2 3 hour GPS points. The Trupulse mounting system should be arriving today via Express mail meaning tomorrow we can georeference the microclimate stations and start LiCOR work!

A quick overview of the lower top of canopy climate station shows an interesting diurnal pattern in the wind direction. Likely related to the fact we are situated on the side of Mauna Kea and sea breezes related to temperature differences (as shown in your temperature data)…

Now going to check the high elevation TOC sensor data, then pack bags for field work and be off. Beautiful day to spend in the woods!

 

The High TOC PAR sensor seems to be working well also, yes!
