Misty morning in Laupahoehoe Forest
Heading up, single rope ascension
Looking down into the forest interior
On a Tyrolean traverse preparing to collect a leaf area density profile
Gear drying after a rainy day
Chaos as I learn to program our PAR sensors
Dave helping wiring our two Vaisala WXT510 weather stations
Intercalibrating PAR sensors
Heading out to trim a small gap in the top of a tree (120 ft up) necessary to install our lower elevation top-of-canopy climate station
Installing the weather station, lower elevation, we have another one in a smaller tree 300 m higher elevation, and a full weather tower in the middle elevation
PAR and weather sensors at top of the high elevation Ohia tree
Checking the data from the high elevation top of canopy weather station and uploading a revised program
BF3 installation at top of mid elevation tower
Our BF3, what a joy when it finally worked, a great replacement for the 2 shade ring systems we developed (and which were a huge amount of work to run)
Making the interior forest weather sensors
Robots, looking beautiful and new...still many parts left to complete.
Interior forest weather sensor installed
Collecting LiCOR 6400 measurements in a forest interior gap
Preparing the LiCOR for canopy measurements
Eben rapelling from Tyrolean traverse colelcting leaves
collected leaves, and sonic measuring system
At night at the lab with LAI3000 measuring the area of the leaves collected during the day
Leica GS50 plus to georeference the stakes at each our 10 plots
