Summer 2016 visit

Todo list

• get tower safety trained
• CANOE out to figure all of underwater sensors out!
  • lake depth, lake par, lake temp
  • measuring tape
  • inspect pressure transducer and change desiccant
  • figure out what is measuring temperature
  • swap underwater quantum
• replace snow transducer
• remove old radio antenna
• bring longer conduit housing for evap pan
• mesh for pluvio
  • bring wood, nails, hammer
• guided accuracy test pluvio
• take down TPS tripod
• take out base station for old radio? ask jim first- he said ok
• fix snow depth output/program, right now snow_depth_1 and temp_corr are basically the same and not usefully different
• BRING PLUVIO USB CABLE
• ANTIFREEZE for pluvio
• level radiometers, tipping bucket
• write plan for cleaning underwater PAR and checking evap pan

accomplished

8/23/16

• emptied pluvio
• ran guided accuracy test on Pluvio => now working!
• lake trip
  • swapped lake par sensor. it is anchored to the bottom 130cm below lake surface that day (attached to the white buoy)
  • pulled up 107 and added it to this anchor
  • pulled up pressure transducer, threw it back out REMEMBER TO null out data!!!

8/26/16

• broke down old TPS tripod (took photos)
• took out old base station radio, NL100 and kitchen timer
• added antifreeze mixed with water to the pluvio
• checked level on tipping bucket- still level
• leveled total solar radiation
• leveled UVB + CNR4 (UVA already leveled)
• replaced snow transducer
• installed new mesh panel on outer pluvio fence
• put 107 back on pressure transducer anchor
  • attached orange buoy
  • it was 2m deep on that day, though anchored to bottom
