05/07/2024: Logger / Station Maintenance:                               [1606] 
 
            - loaded logger program: mml-bbcd.cr1* (237 -> LWS-L)** 
                  * supports "maintenance mode" 
                 ** sensor replaced: 08/26/2023 (no canopy) 
 
            - cleaned-up previously collected data 
 
 
03/21/2024: Logger / Station Maintenance:                               [1415] 
 
            - site maintenance, including: 
               - checked anemometer (good) 
               - checked leaf wetness [standard] sensor (program update needed)* 
               - checked soil sensors (good) 
               - checked tipping-bucket rain gauge (new and level from last visit) 
               - checked tripod (leveled using fence post for support) 
               - checked voltages (good) 
               - checked wind vane (properly aligned) 
               - replaced atmp/relh sensor and radiation shield** 
 
               * site does not include a canopy sensor 
              ** faulty sensor was causing logger issues

08/26/2023: Logger / Station Maintenance:                               [1340] 
 
            - routine site maintenance, including: 
               - readjusted tripod* 
               - replaced leaf wetness (standard) sensor [237 -> LWS]** 
               - replaced tipping-bucket rain gauge 
 
               * station was hit by a tractor on 07/24/2023... the only sensor that was  
                 damaged was rain gauge.  However, due to the orientation of the sensor,  
                 the solar radiation data was faulty from 07/24/2023 - 08/26/2023 
 
              ** updated logger program is needed 
               
              ** station will no longer support canopy leaf wetness.
