snow flurries, and about 0.5" on the ground. Cloudy, temp about 25F with moderate wind. Ground is frozen for first 2cm, so vehicles could drive into field. It was a bit hard to chip through the crust, but the ground was soft to remove soil sensors.
Kurt & Bob Wiley tore down all 6 pressure sites.
Dan & Steve (with some help from Kurt & Bob) removed all sensors/cables/batteries/aux towers from lconv, leaving the stripped 20m tower and solar panels.
Moved all sensors back to base. Infrastructure still in the field.
We took a lunch break to warm up and refuel (ourselves).
Labeled batteries:
- Golf batteries: LC0'm, LC1'm (0 connected to charger)
- Other 2 lconvm: LC2m, LC3m
- Other site batteries: LC0, LC1 (only 2?)
- Also labeled power monitors as LCm and LC. Note that LCm had a non-sunsaver controller.
Decided not to record sensor serial numbers, since should already know them. I wasn't sure about rad/soils, so:
- left all soybean soil sensors cabled together to mote 21
- 2794(?) NR01 came from soybeans, placed in middle, next-to-bottom row in black case
- NR01 from 20m.lconv is in the right, next-to-bottom row in black case.
All in all, we're pleased with how the day went.
