Weather: Cirrus in the AM (see photo below) following clear skies the rest of the day. Cooler than yesterday with winds picking up by midday.
Looks like the towers survived IOP8, which is great because they called another IOP for Tuesday/Wednesday. IOP9 will be the last for SWEX.
Thanks to Chris for clarifying that I went to the wrong gate at s4 (San Marco). I revisited the site with Laura and found the gate was wide open. We took a soil sample and cleaned the radiometer (~10:42am). Vegetation was about thigh high.
Back at ISFS base trailer
- Processed the soil sample.
- Laura sorted the USB camera on ISS1 that had stopped operating.
Laura reminiscing about the good old days with Bill.
- Stephan De Wekker’s lidar trailer was parked beside the base trailer and had a broken AC fan that was rotating about the drum and making a horrendous noise. We notified Bill who contacted Stephan. By the time we left he had arrived to take care of it.
I had class in the afternoon so, all in all, a quiet data day.
