654: data processing, Site none, Wed 09-Dec-2009 13:00:02 MST, october, 2009 info...
found a subtle BUG in cal.co2.q....related to the loaned LI-6262..it's
related to the serial numbers...ie:

 fgrep serial cal.co2.q

 fun.cal.co2 <- function(zero, span, co2.raw,t.raw,p.raw,h2o.raw,t1,serial)
 if(serial==638) {
 if(serial==308) {
 if(serial==368) {
 if(serial==169) {
 if(serial==224) {
 if(serial==638 | serial == 169) {
 if(serial==638 | serial == 169) {
 if(serial==638 | serial == 169) {
 if(serial==638 | serial == 169) {
                 if(serial==638 | serial == 169) {

in spots where it says, "if(serial==638 | serial == 169)" it should
say, if(serial==638 | serial == 169 | serial == 224)"

doh!!

also, what's the difference between:

co2.fluxes.q:if(serial==638 || serial == 169  || serial == 224) {

and

cal.co2.q:if(serial==638 | serial == 169)       {

?? [has to do with vectors/matrices?]...see:

www4.stat.ncsu.edu/~reich/st810A/R_Cheatsheet.doc

so now i have:

 fun.cal.co2 <- function(zero, span, co2.raw,t.raw,p.raw,h2o.raw,t1,serial)
 if(serial==638) {
 if(serial==308) {
 if(serial==368) {
 if(serial==169) {
 if(serial==224) {
 if(serial==638 || serial == 169 || serial == 224)       {
 if(serial==638 || serial == 169 || serial == 224)       {
 if(serial==638 || serial == 169 || serial == 224)       {
 if(serial==638 || serial == 169 || serial == 224)       {
                 if(serial==638 || serial == 169 || serial == 224)       {



610: equipment purchases, Site none, Tue 20-Jan-2009 09:49:16 MST, equipment purchases Jan 2009.
% purchases in Jan, 2009:

* note the fantom usb disk (Serial # : 288090) is not working.  (note,
it turned out to be a problem with the enclosure, not the hard disk
itself).

as a replacement

- bought a 1TB western digital disk (WDE1UBK10000N) from newegg.com
  ($120)

- also, bought two replacement batteries for the APC UPS's. RBC33 for
  the APC BACK-UPs RS 1500VA ($81).  Also, bought a new battery for
  the Back-UPS 500 (RBC2, $36).  order is from buyuptime.com


539: equipment purchases, Site none, Wed 12-Mar-2008 16:39:00 MDT, Campbell fix to cr23x and batteries.
March 12, 2008.

The "broken" UCB cr23x logger (sn 6425, W/4M memory) was sent
back to us from campbell.  

The diagnosis was:

"LCD was black.  Was able to communicate via RS232.  Sent new OS and
reset LCD contrast.  Bench test, calibrated and ran in environmental
chamber.  Did final test and unit is working properly and meeting
specs."

cost of repair = $142.50.


Also, the two batteries were delivered.  Details:

1. PS12LA or PS512M Replacement Sealed Rechargeable Battery, 7 Ahr
   (this one is to replace the battery running the NCTC logger).

2. two 6V 7A-hr Lead Acid Batteries (these can go inside a cr23x).

Date:    Wed, 24 Oct 2007 17:20:25 MDT
To:      Sean.Burns@Colorado.EDU
From:    Jeffrey Mark Beauregard 
Subject: critical site updates from 10/24

Hi Sean.

1. I downloaded from the soil and tc loggers, and these data files are
in my h ome directory on russter2.

2. The N2 cylinder at the tower still has 400 psi of pressure, and the
 span cylinder at the tower still has 700 psi of pressure.

3. I set up the cr23x but wasn't able to actually start it up because
I didn't have the green power plug with me...this was still on campus
from when I brought it down the other week...but I have located it
here and will bring it up to the site on my n ext visit.

4. Jia was up on the top of the north canopy tower today and called me
over to "chec k something out"...Noah's data logger box was wide
open. It looked like it had been left open ever since it was last
visited. The whole thing was in bad shape...everyth ing was sitting in
a few inches of water and ice. I didn't know what to do about it,
because it seemed that tipping over the box to empty the water would
have been a ba d idea...plus the logger seemed to be sitting a bit
above the water. Not sure how th is happened. I am guessing that at
some point everything in the box was covered in s now, so there might
be water damage to stuff that is now dry. Our "cuff" SC32A that you
put in there was totally submerged in water, so I took this out, dried
it off an d brought it back to campus this afternoon. My plan is to
test it with one of the av ailable 21x loggers at some point to see if
it still works.

5. There isn't that much snow on the forest floor, and today was
pretty warm up ther e.

If you do decide to go up tomorrow instead of Friday and can possibly
call me let me know, that would be ideal because I might not be able
to check my e-mail at home to night...Otherwise I will plan on Friday.

Jeff

Hi Sean.

Right-o...this wasn't Noah's box then, sorry for the confusion. It was
the MRS logger box. Anyway, I assume we will meet at 8:30 tomorrow
morning in Ramaley?

495: site visit, Site none, Wed 17-Oct-2007 11:23:25 MDT, site visit on Tuesday, October 16, 2007 (JB, SpB, NT, Charlie, LL)
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007 Visit:
---------------------------------
At the site: SpB, JB, NT, C, LL

Purpose of visit:  setup some thermocouples at the N Can tower (never
happened).

Weather: Colder than it has been.  About 5" of new snow on the ground
from the storm on Sunday.  The road was ok.

--------- Misc Notes:

* drove up in the CU grey jeep.

* Nicole/Charlie were putting up snow fencing down by her plots.

---------

* Jeff and I helped Lynette collect soil samples along the tram
line in the morning.  We also pulled out all of her soil moisture
and temperature probes.

* at ~13:45 MST, turned off the slow ozone sensor (TECO).

* at 13:40 MST, disconnected the KZ PAR-Lite sensor.

* there was a cylinder of zero air (CC153241) that was outside the
fence at the tower...this cylinder had around 1300 psi of pressure.
moved it inside the fence and put it on the pallete.

* brought down the empty cylinder of zero air that was at HYDRA (CC?).

* brought up a full cylinder of N2 (it's on the floor of the trailer).

* checked the snowprobes and tape marking the hts.

  tree = ok.
   mid = 3cm too high, ie, a 40cm reading is ACTUALLY 37cm.
   far = ok.

* left a spool of TC wire out by the N Canopy tower.


we visited the old hydra and TRAM site at Como Creek to remove LL's soil gear, 
and also visited cuff

Friday, October 12th, 2007 Visit:
---------------------------------
At the site: SpB, JB, RaM, SO + NCAR Crew

Purpose of visit: help move tram.

Weather: Awesome Fall weather continues.

--------- Misc Notes:

* drove up in the CU grey jeep.

---------

* spent part of the morning moving Tram stuff from Como creek up to
near CUFF tower.

* at 12:45 MST, shutdown HYDRA for the year.  Packed it up and moved
it down to NCAR for the winter.  Note, on 10/10 all the inlets at
different heights on the tram towers were moved together for a mini
comparison.  There are data from the night of 10/11 and the morning of
10/12 to compare these.

* the final pressures of gas cylinders at HYDRA:

* the steps for re-starting the isff.colorado.edu data system (all
  done as root):

  /etc/rc3.d/S99isff start
  adamserver
  nc_server (don't think this matters)
  rtrun -r 5 serial_ingest -z  (probably not needed?)
  kill -HUP  (ingest process 1)
   something like:   aster    12415  0.0  0.5  4832 1528 pts/4    S    23:28   0:00 -tcsh -c /home/aster/bin/Linuxi686/ingest -z; /home/aster/projec
  kill -HUP  (ingest process 2)
  ingest (start ingest again).

then you should get something like:

* tried to connect with the NCAR TC 23x data logger.  Could not make
any kind of connection...tried to use the CSI Dev Config Utility...but
the following error would occur:

  Device Disconnected
  "Clock check with the data logger failed"

  11:04:10.35 Fault
  "Classic ::  CmdClockSet"

when we tried to do *B at the keypad we would get an error, "Mode 11".
The other * inputs seemed to work ok (for example, *5 showed the clock
was working ok).  we tried doing, "*AAAAA98765" to reset the logger
memory.  After waiting about 10 minutes the screen went "black"...ie,
all the small cubes on the panel showed up as dark areas.  And then we
couldn't do anything else with the logger.

* when we couldn't get anything to work with the cr23x we disconnected
all the thermocouples and removed it from the tower.  The wiring is:

              purple wire = High
                 red wire = Low
                    black = signal ground.

  hi jeff,

  i recieved the following email from you about this:

   Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2007 11:45:19 -0600 (MDT)

   I forgot to mention this a second ago...Our edgeports were repaired,
   not replaced. They also did a nice job of cleaning them up on the
   outside. They almost look new...I have the repair reports (1 for each
   edgeport) and a shipping order. I will put these in the receipts
   binder.

  based on this it sounds like they might be in one of the receipts
  binders?  it would be good to have a record of which edgeport (ie, the
  serial number) is still broken.  I know it's the newer one, but not
  sure the serial number...though i might have that info somewhere.


                                         SpB.

   know where these are? I cannot seem to find them amongst my notes

431: equipment purchases, Site none, Wed 23-May-2007 13:49:28 MDT, purchase gast rebuild kit (vanes, etc)...
May 23, 2007.

Ordered 4 repair kits for the GAST 1531-107B-G557X pumps (run the EC system).

This is gast service kit K219.

contact info:

Steve Knox
Fiero Power
303.431.3600

information about life of vanes = 10000 hours.  (416 days).

life of bearing is ~ 27000 hours (for low pressure)....

so, probably a good idea to change the vanes about once a year.

if the bearing goes bad then it's better to replace the pump.

Hi Gary,

I emailed with Russ.  Please go ahead and replace all the transducers
and also the electronics board (for $1250).  i'll be out of town until
Aug 7th but just let us know when it is ready to be picked up (email
works best)...do you need any credit card information before you get
started?

thanks,

188: data processing, Site none, Tue 11-May-2004 11:59:24 MDT, Logger Data Processing Feb/March/April 2004
% Logger data processing Notes

...all fine on the main tower, N Canopy tower had power problems...the 
battery was slowly losing power (see this by plotting the battery voltage 
from the MRS logger).

around March 20th (jd 80) it really started having problems and we lost
data from the TC and soil cr23x data loggers.  apparently the cr10x
needs less power and the MRS snowprobe data were more-or-less ok.

it looks like soil5_3b.dat holds all the data from jd 74-118:

ie, soil5_3b.dat:  74  to 118.

there is a large gap in the middle of this file..this is when the 
power was not working well at the N canopy tower...the gap is:

137,82,1820,-6999,-.195,.009,.018,.045,
137,82,1825,-6999,-.195,.005,.018,.046,
137,325,1515,-6999,-19.14,-20.7,-.446,       **** remove
137,105,1500,-6999,-.602,-.721,-.601,-.31,   **** remove
137,105,1505,-6999,-.601,-.726,-.592,-.312,  **** remove
137,105,1510,-6999,-.597,-.728,-.595,        **** remove
137,105,1515,-6999,-.6,-.726,-.594,-.32,     **** remove
137,105,1520,-6999,-.601,-.726,-.6,-.321,    **** remove
137,110,1250,-6999,-.601,-.727,-.595,-.321
137,110,1255,-6999,-.604,-.726,-.599,-.32,
137,110,1300,-6999,-.603,-.729,-.6,-.321,

this creates nearly a 1 month gap in the data!!

note that soil3_17b.dat stops at day77...ie,

tail soil3_17b.dat
137,77,1530,-6999,-.424,-.629,
137,77,1535,-6999,-.428,-.627,

and soil5_3b.dat starts at day 74...so there is some overlap
here...remove the first 3 days of data from soil5_3b.dat and then
everything is clean.

now, i combined soil5_3b.dat and soil5_3c.dat into soil5_3.dat ... use soil5_3.dat for March, April, and May!!

here are the files:

153: data processing, Site none, Sun 04-Jan-2004 12:22:53 MST, New Span Gas at Tower
* Data processing notes:

---when the span gas is changed two files need to be modified in
/usr/local/aster/isff/src/sfun/NIWOT/....these are:

-rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns      13760 Nov  9 13:38 cal.co2.q*
-rwxrwxr-x   1 aturnip     10997 May 22  2003 cal.prof.q*

(didn't realize this earlier so only cal.co2.q was modified).

added:

if(t1 >= utime("03 nov 01 143000"))     {
 Cspan <- 345.4         # cal tank value in ppm from (Scott-Marin Cylinder)
                        #  Nov 1, 2003 -> 
                        }

to both files.  Also, updated for the span tank changed on 12/4/2003, ie:

if(t1 >= utime("03 nov 01 143000") & t1 < utime("03 dec 04 133000"))     {
 Cspan <- 345.4         # cal tank value in ppm from (Scott-Marin Cylinder)
                        #  Nov 1, 2003 -> Dec 4, 2003
                        }

if(t1 >= utime("03 dec 04 133000"))     {
 Cspan <- 402.1         # cal tank is CC66062, (402.59+400.98+402.8)./3=402.12
                        #  Dec 4, 2003 ->
                        }

then do,

 make .fun.cal.co2
 make .fun.cal.prof



149: hydra, Site none, Fri 12-Dec-2003 14:20:24 MST, How to do a snow pit
Snow Pit Technique:
------------------

fill in "snow cover profile" form.  (forms and pit kit are in
the CU trailer).

1. Dig Pit
2. Boot Penetration (measure depth of boot impression).
3. Measure snow pit depth
4. Do air temperature (compare probes)
5. Tare scale with the 1 liter snow wedge (~740 g)
6. Do layer temps at 5 cm increments (in middle of 10-cm layers)
7. Do density measurements in 10cm segments (ie, 0-10, 10-20, etc).
8. test for layers
9. look at snow grains from layers.

70: bowling, Site none, Mon 07-Jul-2003 16:45:45 MDT, NOte: Laser Data giving ZERO.
July 7, 2003.

I was about to leave and was checking the laser data one last time. Both
signals are at zero.  This appeared to happen at about 22:39 UTC (16:39 MDT).

Will check these again tomorrow morning (might need to go up to the site
to figure out what happened).


69: bowling, Site none, Mon 07-Jul-2003 15:24:08 MDT, Note: Laser Data clipped
July 7th, 2003.

Started cockpit this morning and laser data appeared to
be working fine.  Since cockpit leaves a data trace as it
runs, I can see that, at some point during the day, the laser
data were clipping.  It's difficult to say how long this happened
for (it looks like a short time).  It was sometime between about
10am and 2pm MDT.  Everything looks fine now so there is nothing
to do about this.

1. It looked like there were some problems on the afternoon of May

since nwt030528.182838 is missing chan206 and it's a short file
I moved that file to my directory...it's now:

     611856 May 28 12:39 /home/staff/sburns/nwt030528.182838.problemfile

I can move it back after the processing is done.

3. per andrews suggestion I manually blocked out some times near the
problem time...I did this in Splus as:

 a <- dget("/home/staff/aturnip/results/Data.times/DT.may21.31.03")
 dim(a)
 [1] 528  11
 > a[367:369,]

 attr(, "class"):
 [1] "ats"    "its"    "Matrix"

 dput(a,"/home/staff/aturnip/results/Data.times/DT.may21.31.03")

Did the same thing for PT and WT files..ie,

 > a <- dget("/home/staff/aturnip/results/Data.times/PT.may21.31.03")
 > a[367:369,] <- F
 > dput(a,"/home/staff/aturnip/results/Data.times/PT.may21.31.03")
 > b <- dget("/home/staff/aturnip/results/Data.times/WT.may.21.31.03")
 > b[367:369,] <- F
 > dput(b,"/home/staff/aturnip/results/Data.times/WT.may.21.31.03")


4. after doing this copied  fluxcalcs.csh to fluxcalcs_notime.csh...where
I commented out the calls to find the times.  Re-ran this.  So far there
are no errors:

fgrep Error tmp/fluxcalcs_notime.csh.splus.out.12504

Some of these files have data which are averaged down to 1/2 values.  
There are now 5-min data available for most of the loggers (error in CNR 
program needs to be fixed) and most will be 5-min for June.  Soil logger
is set to be 10-min values.

Also, in early May (2nd May) all the logger times were checked and set
to be MST.  All these files have the time stamp in MST.  The location of
the time stamp (at the end of the data period) was not considered in
processing these data.

 Hi Ed,

 Were both cylinders in the order delayed or just one?  

 If you can send me an e-mail with any information you get about the
 order that would be better than a phone call.

 thanks for looking into this...

45: site visit, Site none, Mon 02-Jun-2003 16:21:12 MDT, site visit on Monday, June 2 (SpB.)
Monday June 2nd Visit:
----------------------
At the site: SpB.

Purpose of visit:  Top level breaker had popped...chan 201 (upper level
   sonic and li6262) was all RIPs.   Since i was going to be out there
   I decided to also download all the logger data from the 26m Tower.
   Bought a plug from McGuckins to connect the fan for the li6262 pump
   box.

Weather at site:  Nice mild day.  Some afternoon clouds but no thunder
   and lightning.


---------
Misc Notes:

** Creeks are still flowing strongly...

---------
~8:00 AM,

* checked the data from home---noticed that chan 201 was all RIPs so
  planned to go up to the site.

~9:00 AM - Drove to site (spb drove).

~10:30 AM

  * downloaded cr10x MRS data file to MRS PC and transferred it back to CU, ie:

   -rw-rw-r--   1 sburns     967524 Jun  2 10:44 mrs_030530.dat

   (this was the file i downloaded from the logger last Friday)

~11:00 AM - arrived at the site.

 * reset the top level breaker.  restarted the adam on the quacker...it took
   a little while for chan200 (UC logger) and chan202 to start back up again.
   It seemed when i polled the chan200 from russter with rserial it started
   up again (might not be related).

 * restared the li6262 (should be off since it's on the top level power box).

 * connected a plug to the wires for the fan which is inside the box of the
   li6262 pump.  this fan is now plugged in.

 * downloaded the following logger data:

  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns      47980 Jun  2 12:34 cnr6_2.dat*
  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns     873367 Jun  2 13:07 prf6_2.dat*
  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns        328 Jun  2 13:07 prf6_2b.dat*
  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns     491476 Jun  2 13:14 met6_2.dat*
  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns        131 Jun  2 13:14 met6_2b.dat*
  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns     782732 Jun  2 13:26 nctc6_2.dat*
  -rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns         86 Jun  2 13:26 nctc6_2b.dat*

 * noticed that the cnr logger data were still 1/2 hr avgs...tried to
   re-upload the program to the logger and it gave the following error:

37: bowling, Site none, Wed 21-May-2003 12:35:28 MDT, Talk with Dave Bowling (May 21, 2003)

From:    "Sean Burns" 
Subject: Bowling Phone Call...

Hi Andrew,

Dave Bowling called and I talked to him for about 1/2 hour....here our
my notes from our talk (i'll put these in the logbook)...i think you
already know about most all of these:

General:
--------

1. On June 30th we will need extra people to haul Laser and Robot
system out to the field.  

2. He wanted to have everything setup and ready for installation prior
to them arriving on the 30th.

3. He is going to mail us a csat sonic this week.

Laser System:
-------------

1. Order a cylinder of 5% Ultra-pure Air + a regulator for this tank
that will allow for low-delivery flow rates (for laser system).  In
addition we should have a tank of CO2-free air (not N2!) which they
can use to dilute the Ultra-pure tank.  Dave is bringing along 8 cal
cylinders for the system....at any given time 5 cylinders will be
attached to the laser system.

2. Tent---should be near the main tower...best not to have a floor so
they can put supports into the ground.  Within the tent will be a PC
to run the laser system...he asked if we can find a table for the PC
and chairs to sit on.  Also, since they plan on working at night, a
light for the tent.

3. Big pump for laser (should be about 100' away from the tent since
it is noisy).  Need to have a pallate for the pump (for leveling) and
a tarp to keep the rain off of it (need to keep open for cooling).
Probably best to have the exhaust from the pump downhill of the tower.
(note: can't scrub the exahuast since the laser is sensitive to
pressure constrictions at outlet).

4. Liquid Nitrogen.  Need about 10L 2 times per week.  (might be less
than this).  I recall you talked to steve at MRS about the deliveries
going to MRS...was that the plan?

5. Need 2 differential analog inputs on a datalogger for laser
diagnostic signals.  The signal is +/- 10V but should be able to work
with a CR-23X (since laser is a campbell instrument).



Robot System:
-------------
1. Robots will be DC powered.

2. Need to select robot sites (E and W of main tower).  I think Russ
wants to be in on this, right?

3. Need to get power out to the tower sites.

4. Two Sections of scaffolding tower to mount the robots and keep them
off the ground.  A way to get the inlets to treetops (pvc tubing?).

5. We supply 2 tanks of CO2 to go with the robots.

Sean - just forwarding you some stuff I got today for Bowling et
al. at Utah.  Also - talked to Kurt at ATD - he says go for it with
extension cords and battery charger/battery system.  He may even have
some long extension cords he could loan us for the summer.

Hi everyone,

We're coming to Colorado in 5 weeks, so we need to get moving.  Last
time I posed several questions, and got answers to most things.  The
latest version of the summer plans thing is attached.  We no longer
plan to interface with the existing profiler system.

There is a proposed deliniation of responsibilities for some tasks
like solar power and structures to mount things on.  Andy T and Russ,
please take a look and make sure you can provide everything on the
list under your name (or tell me now if you can't and we'll figure
something else out).

Andy T and Andy S, please coordinate as necessary to make things work
- you'll each need details from the other I'm sure.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Subject: Re: niwot ridge plan attached

hi andy,

gearing up for the trip here. i have a few uncertainties.

1) you were checking on some sections of tower...do you have a
structure that we can mount these autosamplers to? they are 1 50 lbs
and need to be upright (i have attached photos). whomever will be
servicing them (swapping flasks, changing reagents, etc) will be most
appreciative if they are mounted at lab bench height. in the past we
have used scaffolding tower material , our own frame built out of
unistrut, and sheds. if you do not have anything for mounting, please
let me know so i can plan accordingly.

2) we will need one cylinder for each autosampler of ~400ppm. can you
provide this or give me contact information to a sugge sted source so
i can get the ordering going?

thanks, andy, looking forward to meeting you!

andy

 Dave and all

 A few comments - also include some comments on Deans reply.

 Starting Date ; no problems on end of May - you just may realize you
 could be setting up in the snow.  Last few years have been dry and
 meltoff occurred early.  Snow was gone by last days of May.  However,
 the year we approached average snowpack (1999) - snow lasted into
 mid-June.

 So far we're at ~70% of average - another dry year, but as Russ keeps
 telling me - El Nino is supposed to give us a dry mid-winter and a
 wet spring - so its too early to speculate.  One other note - I may
 be out of town for a long (3-4) day weekend after May 27.  But should
 be around when everyone first gets here.
 
 On Dean's comment about NCAR coming.  No concerns here.  Meeting
 yesterday concerning the inititiative that funded last fall's
 study. No plans to come back this summer as far as I can tell.
 Jeilun Sun (who headed the study) just wants to work on data
 analysis.
 
 Dave's questions :

 (1) Logger program - I'll send that shortly - having 2 offices I
 always find that what I need is at the other office.

 (2)(3) I have to refresh myself on how many control ports are on a
 CR10x (which runs the profiler).  We are using 4 to control the
 valves.  At the very least, you could connect to the 4 control ports
 and then use their values (0 or 5V) to deduce the level.  Have to
 think a bit more about how to synchronize - but can't believe its too
 difficult.  I'll have to look for the electronics drawings - they
 were made by an undergrad who's long gone, but I think we still have
 copies of these.
 
 Pressure transients and flow rates. This will be much easier to see
 once I find a picture of the flow system - but will try to describe
 it anyway.  I think Dean is right in that the flow through the main
 lines should be kept pretty high so that you don't condense water in
 them (especially on high inlets that then lay on the ground going
 back to the IRGA).  However, the sampling flow rate through the IRGA
 could (and probably should) be reduced.  It is not a 3-way valve -
 the main lines are being continously pumped by a main pump.  There
 are tees on the main lines that lead to a solenoid mainfold (2-way
 valves) which select which level gets sampled to the irga.  the main
 flows are controlled by rotameters (simply a needle valve) and you
 can see the flow drop about 30% when a level is sampled (because now
 a second pump is pulling that line as well).  Dean said that the
 sampling flow rate through the irga was about 1 Lpm - seems awfully
 high to me.  Seems like we need less of pump on this end and should
 flow this around 200-400 sccm - maybe be using the TDL pump. the
 downside to slower flow is slower flushing time, but most of the
 tubing is (or could be) 1/8" and should flush in just a few seconds
 (< 5) even with a much slower sampling flow rate.  I would think that
 lowering the sampling flow rate should greatly reduce the pressure
 transient, because the Irga pressure (~ 580 mbar, from Dean) seems
 awfully low relative to what is probably in the main lines/glass
 reservoirs (probably closer to ambient - 700 mbar).  The profiler on
 the CU tower (another independent profiling system - the one you used
 Dave) works more like this - it has a sampling flow of ~ 350 sccm and
 you don't see really bad pressure transients - its also easier to
 match the pressure during zero's and span's as well - you don't have
 to pull a high flow rate off of the cylinders.
 
 Sample heights - My profile system on the CU tower has an inlet a 0.5
 m and at 1 m.  Can send you some of the data from those 2 levels
 (plus others) if you wish.  But I agree with Dean - the difference
 between 1 and 0.5 m is not as high as I would have expected.  It sort
 of looks like the lowest 5-6 m actually get reasonable well-mixed at
 night - probably due to a relatively strong drainage flow along the
 ground.  There's a sharp drop above 6 m accompanied by a minimum in
 wind speed and temperature at that height.
 
 So - I'll try to gather some drawings and logger code and send them
 along shortly.
 
 cheers

Note:  There are no soil flux data from the N. Canopy Tower since that data
logger didn't have any power when I arrived there.

Some of the logger data had problems...these were cleaned up with
matlab mfiles:

-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns       3555 May  6 13:23 fix_mrs_2003_04.m
-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns       3866 May  5 17:52 fix_tc23x_april03.m
-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns       2838 May  6 16:20 fix_uc_2003_04.m

Mostly the problems were due to errors in the time stamp.  If there
are 2 data gaps within the time period then it was a bit difficult to
tell when the problem occurred.

The raw or original data files were saved as:

-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns     256908 Apr 25 15:45 030425b_raw.dat
-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns     249801 May  5 10:42 030425b_orig.dat

-rwxrwxr-x   1 sburns     168941 May  2 12:58 uc5_2b_orig.dat*

and the "fixed" data files are:

Here's an example of the missing data from the UC data logger
...according to my processing of the UC data the data stopped at:

 Missing Data ----  2003,  4/18   13:00:00  --> 108 1300
 .....
 Missing Data ----  2003,  4/25   12:30:00  --> 115 1230

and then came back on-line at:

 1682 Data: 2003,  4/25   13:00:00   13:00:00

the 25th is a day we went up to the tower....and the time looks

Here are the last few steps to finish off the data processing:

 fun.monthly()   % to make the monthly plots.

1. need to run dirt.q....by "fun.dirt()" in Splus.
(manually edit te dirt.q program....then pick the entire
     month when the gui window pops up).

 edit the file:  dirt.q  % update file names and month.
 compile with:   make .fun.dirt

 > fun.dirt(days=28)


2. month.recap.csh --- this does all the combining and
integrates the soil data into the data file...i think the
end result are the:  s.2003/s.data.* files.

before doing this edit the files:  
                 (replace with the current datafiles):
-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns       2025 Mar 11 14:57 /usr/local/aster/isff/src/sfun/NIWOT/data1.txt

Some details about the Data Processing for March 2003 data.
SpB.

-------
Note:  there was a time gap in the data when the data system was down from about
March 18-24.  This is due to a big snowstorm.  The logger data seem ok for the
canopy tower data.

From the monthly plots there appeared to be 2 minor problems with the data:

 1. Wind speed/dir was artificially being set to zero.  (don't recall exactly
 why/where this was happening...)..andrew fixed the problem.

 2. Rnet from the Q*7.1 was giving some wild numbers (around 4000).  This
 was due to the covar calculation applying the calibration coefficients
 twice.  When the data were spiky "light.calculate.q" was being used--this
 was ok.  with covar data the calculation is done in "met.data.q". ie:

  ### On May 10, 2002 - switched out REBs radiometers :
  if(t1 >= utime("02 may 10 140000") & t1 <= utime("02 dec 01 000000"))   {
  Rnet <- ifelse(Rnet > 0, Rnet*1.0627*9.22, Rnet*1.0079*11.3)
                                }

  ### On DEc. 1, 2002 - switched out REBs radiometers :
  if(t1 >= utime("02 dec 01 000000"))     {
  Rnet <- ifelse(Rnet > 0, Rnet*1.0627*9.35, Rnet*1.0079*11.56)
                                }

-------
there seemed to be a problem with:

 aturnip     13016 Dec 17 16:44 /usr/local/aster/isff/src/sfun/NIWOT/prof.analyze.q

This program was having problems since the sizes of some of the vectors
were not consistent (due to missing data in mid-march)...to fix, i did a 
manual running of the program by making the following patch:

> dim(data.file)
[1] 361  21
> dim(Times)
[1] 385  10
> ec.data <- dget(ec.data)
> dim(ec.data)
[1] 385  24

the dimension of the data.file is different than the times file...just keep
going through this program one step at a time:

> time.tag
 [1] "03 03 11 jd:070 00:00:00 MST" "03 03 11 jd:070 00:30:00 MST"

[380,] 77400
[381,] 79200
[382,] 81000
[383,] 82800
[384,] 84600



to fix this i changed:

> day.time <- matrix(day.time,48*days,1,byrow=T)

to be:

> day.time <- matrix(day.time,48*days+1,1,byrow=T)

i renamed the program to be:  prof.analyze.temp.q
and then recompiled it by:

make prof.analyze.temp.q

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There were also problems with the next set of 10days (ie, mar.21.31.03).

similar thing:

time.begin
[1] "03 03 24 jd:083 17:00:00 MST"
> time.end
[1] "03 03 31 jd:090 23:30:00 MST"
> length(day.time)
[1] 337
> length(time.tag)
[1] 350
> days
[1] 7

so in prof.analyze.temp.q changed,

 day.time <- matrix(day.time,48*days+1,1,byrow=T)    

to be,

 day.time <- matrix(day.time,48*days+14,1,byrow=T)

now it works by doing:

source("/usr/local/aster/isff/src/sfun/NIWOT/prof.analyze.temp.q")
Warning messages:
  assigning "fun.prof.analyze.temp" masks an object of the same name on
        database 2

fun.prof.analyze.temp(GRAPH=F)


by the end of all this the number of files is:

19: data processing, Site none, Thu 03-Apr-2003 09:06:21 MST, Logger Data Processing for March, 2003.
Thursday, April 3, 2003.

note:
------
STill need to download the UC logger data.

Update:  Wed, 5/7, 12:09pm:
---------------------------
Created the undercanopy logger data file for march:

128429 May  7 11:57 /data/projects/NIWOT/raw_data/loggers/UC_2003_03.csv


Update:  Thur, 4/3, 2:23pm:

---------------------------
discovered that the clock on the 23tc4_1.dat file is screwed
up.  (this will be true for next month too, so the clock needs
to be reset!).  The problem occurs at:

 >> tc1(r_jump(1:10)-2,1:4)
        107.00         84.00       1300.00         -3.16
        107.00         84.00       1315.00         -2.94
        107.00         96.00       1145.00         -2.60
        107.00         96.00       1200.00         -2.42
        107.00         96.00       1215.00         -2.26
        107.00         96.00       1230.00         -2.14

this is when we reset the power on the logger.  the problem
was fixed in the program:  

        ~/matlab/m/logger_data/fix_tc23x_march03.m

to do this the time was assumed to be continuous from the
JD84, 1315 time onward.  This file has been corrected and the
new file:

 1605325 Apr  3 13:33 /data/projects/NIWOT/raw_data/soil.data/TCs_2003_03.csv

created.  The end of the file is:

I don't see anything strange in these logs...so this remains a mystery.  It looks
to me like the data system on quacker is going...so, maybe this is a network problem??


15: data processing, Site none, Fri 21-Mar-2003 10:06:15 MST, Splus processing of Feb Data.
When I tried to do the monthly plots of the Feb data I was having problems
since not all the data were there....I noticed that I was missing 3 files:

/home/staff/aturnip/results/profiler/storage.feb.01.10.03
/home/staff/aturnip/results/s.2003/s.data.feb.01.10.03
/home/staff/aturnip/results/weekly/weekly.flux.feb.01.10.03

after a little bit of looking around I found that the storage.feb.01.10.03
file was the problem.  To create this file it was necessary to run:

  fun.prof.analyze(GRAPH=F,MANUAL=T,NAME=1)

in Splus.  After doing this and then running:

  month.recap.csh

all files existed.  There should be 28 files...they are:

10: site visit, Site none, Mon 10-Mar-2003 08:20:46 MST, Site Visit on Friday, Mar 7th (T-seed & SpB).
At the site : T-seed and SpB.

Purpose of visit:  Download loggers, reattach control cable for co2 EC system.

Weather at site:  fairly windy, clear skies, not very cold (around freezing).
   fairly deep snow drifts, ~ mid-thigh depth (had to dig out trailer door).
---------

~9:00 AM - met at CU to drive to site (Andrew drove).

11:00 AM - 

* tried to download the campbell pc card data using the computer at MRS.
  This did not work and it appeared the card was corrupted.  Here's the
  e-mail from Andrew to MRS Andy (note: Andy was not there):

  Date:    Fri, 07 Mar 2003 17:04:30 MST
  To:      Andy OReilly 
  cc:      Mark Losleben , Sean Burns 
  From:    turnipseed andrew a 
  Subject: Card data

  Andy

  Tried downloading the data from one of the PC cards in you lab on Friday.
  However, it kept giving me "card corrupted" messages.  Mark looked in and
  thought it didn't look too good.  It appeared that the desktop was trying
  to retrieve data from the card - but it was going through the entire card
  very slowly.  I left it while it was trying to retrieve data and was
  planning to drop back by MRS in the afternoon and see how if finished.
  However, when we got down - Marr lab was locked up and I don't know the
  door combo (I thought I did - but obviously it must have changed).  So
  computer may still be connected to the card reader.

  Mark also gave another card which is now in the field archivng (we hope)
  data. The one that may corrupted was the first card we put in it (in
  January).  We had switched with another card a few weeks ago.  We
  replaced that card with Mark's today (Friday, Mar 7th).  So sometime we
  may need to come and try to download this second card and see if things
  are working. (In the next week or so - it will probably have to be Sean to
  come).  Anyway, if you get a chance - see if the system downloaded
  anything off of the card that's in the card reader (a green card).  I
  tried to save it to a file in MRC_turnip (I think the names was
  030703.dat).  Let me know if it did anything - also we'll figure out when
  we can come and try this other card.  thanks

* the N2 and CO_2 tanks at the tower base seemed ok (should start recording
  tank pressures).

* Downloaded the logger data from the 3 data loggers at the North Canopy
  Access Tower.  (Note: we left the power cord connected and just stuffed it
  into the tower tubing)

* Downloaded the logger data from the 2 lowest data loggers at the 26m tower.
  The "met" logger did not have much data since Andrew had downloaded it last
  week.  The CNR DL at around 24m was not downloaded (too windy).

* Re-attached the control cable for the co2 eddycorrelation system 
  (LiCor 6262).  The controls for the Li6262 are done by the "Met" data
  logger (lowest logger).  Andrew mentioned that using the fast data logger
  to control the EC system did not work very well.

* Removed the lowest T/RH sensor (~2m) to replace with the new sensor.  The
  instrument is at the trailer and Andrew showed me how to make a new connector
  for it.  (I plan to go up next week and finish this).

The files downloaded from the loggers are:

Created the following csv data files from the data loggers:
(note:  these are the data directly downloaded from the loggers
in the field--they are typically averaged down data).

Each file covers all the data from the month of January, 2003.  There were a 
couple of files I wasn't sure what to do with...these are:

rw-rw-r--   1 sburns     141364 Jan  9 15:52 /home/staff/sburns/data_loggers_download/23UC1_9.DAT
-rw-rw-r--   1 sburns     343106 Jan  9 15:44 /home/staff/sburns/data_loggers_download/CR10X1.DAT

the 23UC1_9.DAT file is from the mini-tower data logger..data from this 
logger have not been downloaded recently.

I'm not sure what the "CR10X1.DAT" file is...the julian date with the file is
not from January.


4: To Do List, Site none, Tue 11-Feb-2003 15:54:31 MST, To Do List from Feb 11, 2003.
Here is a list of items which Andy and I talked about:

Immediate Needs:
-----------------
At the tower :

Most Important :
(1) Download tower data loggers (Bill may have done this)
(2) Try loopback test on the quacker
(3) Check out the Kr hygrometer - is it hooked up properly. (at ~24m)
(4) Switch  PC-card in the MRStemp logger. Try to download data from old card.

Secondary Importance:
---------------------
(1) Calibrate the other CO2 standard at the trailer.  [still have 2-3 months 
      since the tank at the tower was full from last visit].
(2) Change filters on the profile system
(3) Change filters on the Li6262 EC system.

For Double Profiler :
(1) Buy new pump (big pump to continously pump the lines - check with tony and see what he ordered last summer).  Gast Model #RAA-V210-EB  (T-seed)
(2) Replumb the inlet lines at the shack.
        a) Put in bulkhead inlet with 3/8" bulkhead fittings
        b) make lines from bulkheads to glass volumes out of Dekabon.
        c) makes lines from glass volumes to solenoid manifolds out of Dekabon
(3) Need to order : 3/8" bulkhead fittings (14 or more) + some extra 3/8" ferrules and nuts.  [SpB, order from Denver valve]
(4) will probably need to change the inlet filters in the spring.


Stuff to order:
---------------
(1) new HMP45D Rel.Hum/Temp. sensor - need to ask : am replacing an HMP35D - will new one fit in the same housing???  [SpB.]

(2) Gast pump for EC system.  Model 1531.
  Can ask about repairing our old one - has a broken insert plate (part # AG293)
        (also buy a "Service Kit" - only about $25.00)
   [according to Dean this is not worth reparing].

(3) Get ATI sonic fixed. Make some plots of v-axis (vs. CSAT-3) from last summer to show them.  [T-seed]

(4) Send back propvane upstairs - had problem of suddenly not outputting analog signals, although it had power and good cables.  Could have been grounding problem.  Also, needed recalibration.  [T-seed]

(5) Send back Li7500 to have chopper blades painted.  [T-seed]


Computer Stuff:
--------------
(1) Buy new hard drive for  urquell (backup drive)
    [we decided that a 80Gb Drive for specialk might be a better thing to do].


Processing stuff:
----------------
(1) make ASCI outputs from Splus functions (in batchcode) so Sean can use in MatLab.
(2) get Matlab for the workstations.  [working on this...]
(3) get Linux and put it on Sean's PC.  [SpB.]



Stuff for Sean to know how to do:
--------------------------------
(1) Get Sean to run batch codes
(2) get Sean to run weekly/monthly code.
(3) put in soil data - from loggers to S+
(4) put in logger backup data.  [uses excel on PC].

(5) show him some Campbell logger code - how to do it.
     --to run here we need to bring the translator box back from the trailer
     --one idea:  change some of the code on quacker ch201 from "L" to "H" 
       resolution...also, update quacker:200 to use "campbell_binary". 

--some additional S-plus programs to try:  "co2.fluxes2.q" and "sonic.tests.q"
