Overview
The met station at Toolik needs to be transferred from its tripod to a tower. The field requirements for this assignment will be outlined here.
To Bring from Fairbanks
- Cabling to extend thermocouple temperature profile from old enclosure to new enclosure.
- shovels for digging out buried cabling
- extension cord
- cable splicing tools
- soldering iron
- butane
- propane torch
- solder
- heat shrink
- extra cabling
- Toolbags
- Extra data logger (CR1000, for any instruments that aren't transferred to the new logger on this trip and or don't reach... completely just a back up item)
- small actionpacker
- sled
- Climbing harness
Current Equipment On-Site
- New tower w/ enclosure & guy wires
- Garden web cam
- Pluvio 1 (Currently installed but broken)
- Met Station w/ soil thermocouples, radiation, lake sensors on rusted tripod
- New Multiplexer
- Pluvio 2 (needs to be installed but is in the environmental data center)... has a different base than the existing one.
- Pluvio 2 base is inside the wyoming gauge snow fence sitting on the ground
Goals
- Mount recalibrated AT/RH sensors
- Move power to the new enclosure
- Transfer as much equipment as possible to new tower
- Leave what can't be moved at the old site
- Install Pluvio 2
- note, pluvio 1 wire is a bit short. but should be okay with pluvio 2
- Get evaporation pan working
- Install new radiometer
- Tighten guy wires and level tower
Needs
- TFS Site Wiring / cable lengths
- List cable types needed ?
- List muxes needed ?
List equipment/tools need to bring
- Conduit
- New Program (Bob Bu has draft)
- Troubleshoot Evaporation Pan
- Figure out what needs calibration
Updates
- Pluvio 1 and Pluvio 2 use different base stands. Make sure to include the Pluvio 2 mounting hardware!
- Evaporation pan may not be in the budget this year if the gauging unit (Campbell 21531) needs to be replaced.
- Conduit isn't an immediate priority since this depends on the final setup.
