Krypton

12July13 ~9:40-10:30 Cleaned Kryptons.   Voltage have come back up, perhaps partly due to some drying Cleaned Wetness, Par, Licors up tower Wetness sensors had moisture sitting on them from dew or rains yesterday.  High humidity could mean little evap.

John and I checked the rain gauge at soilb for clogs at about 12:00am. It was clean. The 2m krypton was cleaned. UPDATE: The gauge did show a tip when a rain event moved through at about 2:00 pm and the 2m krypton went to 0 volts.

From about 1620-1650 was on the tower, primarily to take a set of LAI measurements (see its own entry). At this time, also cleaned kryptons (first 2m, then 14m).  Note that I added water to the wetness sensor at 14m, but forgot to brush it off once I was done about a minute later.  Did LAI's after this.

At tower mostly to take LAI profie since mostly overcast. 0958 - Oncley cleaned 2m kh2o 1010 - Semmer starts ascent 1015 - Oncley soilb sample  1020 - Semmer first LAI reading at 40m 1025 - Oncley soila sample 1029 - Oncley unplug rain gauge drain (tube was mostly open, so data should have been okay) 1040 - Semmer clean 14m krypton 1048 - Semmer down

Steve S was on the tower from ~0915-0930 to dry off the krypton and 14m sonic.  All are now working again (though sonic may have revived itself a bit earlier).  Kryptons are still only about 0.1V.  Steve noted that there was an obvious water drop hanging on the sonic.

Well....I <almost> made it.  (My first time high on the tower.) Was on the tower from 1055-1210 today, cleaning everything from 2m->32m.  As Chris did, I started by putting a drop of water on the wetness sensor (with the exception of the 2m level, which doesn't have one, and the 8m licor that I did just a minute before putting the drop on).  Later, I realized that I could use the drop as a source of water while doing the cleaning!</almost>…

June 8, 10:45 - dried 2m kh2o with handkerchief.  kh2oV = 0.28V ~11:50 - Chris cleaned krypton hygrometers

May 30, ~ 10:30 - 1:30 CDT Gordon and Tom serviced the sensors and DSMs on the profile tower: 44m: Cleaned Licor 38m: Cleaned EC150 ~36m: Cleaned K&Z 4-component net radiometer 32m: Cleaned Licor; grounded DSM; cleaned PAR; Tsfc @ -1.5 degC 26m: Cleaned Licor, PAR, and wetness sensor (splattered w/ bird crap) 20m: Licor and PAR cleaned; PAR covered in bird crap 14m: Grounded DSM and fixed usbdisk; cleaned PAR, KH2O (0.35V) and wetness sensor; no Tsfc 8m: Cleaned PAR, Licor,…
