Trip Recap

  • Got Pits in at Teller top & Bottom
    • ran out of laptop battery, need to correct one more program error at teller bottom site in spring, program fixed on toughbook but not yet on logger.
  • Installed ground control at Kougarok & logged for several hours
  • Surveyed in a bunch of stuff in Council
  • Surveyed in soil pits etc in Teller
  • downloaded data from all 4 Kougarok area

Fairbanks

To Buy:

  • machine screws for sat transceiver

Teller Bottom @ TL_DS_1

To Do:

  • Get Thermal Conductivity sensors running
  • Jumper for batteries
  • Pack up Surface Water Station for winter
  • Duct seal up all instrument box holes
  • Final Discharge Measurement of season
  • serial numbers

In Nome Storage:

  • jumpers for last battery
  • soil sampling cylinders for soil pit
  • Cable spools for Pressure transducers
  • wading rod & cloth tape for discharge measurement

At Site

  • duct seal for all connections
  • soil pit sensors in large actionpacker

Extras

  • think about how to mount iridium here...
  • Bring covers from Fairbanks to cover unitstrut ends like tennis balls.

Left to fix

  • Decagon SRS sensors... test again in Fairbanks
  • Thermal Conductivity sensors... figure out their deal...
    • Check out the wiring. Specifically, the original program guidance has a typo
    • VX3 should be wired to SE11 but program says to SE12. (maybe... in any case, double-check)
    • I have a single working here measuring temperature properly.
  • Review fieldbook

Teller Top @ TL_IS5

Remaining To Do for fall

  • Bring out a charge controller for solar panel
  • soil samples from soil pit
  • soil pit sensors are in a large actionpacker next to tower.

Kougarok M64

  • Add ground control survey point

Skookum Pass

  • Add Satellite Components

Kougarok Old Sites

  • Download data over the radio network

Council Old Sites

  • Look for camera at Blueberry site
  • replace antenna & coax @ blueberry site
  • cross river by inflatable if water level is cooperative.

For Datapro:

Add a PRI / NDVI Function:

  • NDVI = (DownNIR/UpNIR - DownRed/UpRed)/(DownNIR/UpNIR + DownRed/UpRed)
