**HISTORY:** [January 10, 1999]{.underline}: Station initiated. Three
stacks of four Vitel Hydra probes were installed and attached to a
Campbell Scientific CR10X-2M datalogger. Six Campbell 107 temperature
sensors were installed and attached to the datalogger. Above ground
sensors are one LiCor pyranomerer, one Met One wind speed and direction
sensor, and one Vaisala HMP45C air temperature and relative humidity
sensor. The above ground sensors were mounted on the tower using
appropriate brackets. The air temperature/relative humidity sensor was
mounted in a solar radiation shield. The wind and solar radiation
sensors were mounted three meters above the ground surface. The air
temperature/relative humidity sensor was mounted approximately 1.6
meters above the ground surface. The datalogger, a Campbell AM416
multiplexer, and a Campbell BP24 power supply, were located inside of a
Campbell ENC16/18 enclosure. The enclosure was mounted on a Campbell
CM10 3-m tower. Power is supplied by a Campbell (SolarX) MSX20 solar
panel, mounted on the tower. The solar panel faces true north and is
perpendicular to the surface of the earth. Datalogger was set to New
Zealand Standard Time. Midnight is 2400. The datalogger program, *Ant4*,
was downloaded to the datalogger. Measurements are made at 20-minute
intervals and averaged and recorded every hour. Measurements of solar
radiation and wind are made at 10-second intervals and averaged and
recorded every hour. Sub-station established in oil spill site
approximately 400 ft from main station. Two 37-conductor cables were
used to connect the remote sub-station with the main station. A NEMA box
with terminal strips was used to connect the sensors at the remote
station to the 37-conductor cable. Sensors at the remote sub-station
were 12 Vitel soil moisture sensors and 12 Campbell 107 temperature
sensors. Problems with remote Vitel sensors. Can only get three to work.
If try to connect more than three to datalogger, get -99999.

[December 4-6, 1999]{.underline}: Downloaded data. Everything looks OK.
There is a little rust on the counter weight for the wind direction
sensor. The solar panel is OK --- no sandblasting. The ground clamp for
the second battery was loose. Disconnected remote site and upgraded it
to a stand-alone station. Downloaded new *ANT4* program to datalogger to
account for the elimination of the remote station. Changed readings from
every two hours to hourly.

[December 13, 2000]{.underline}: Ground wire for extra battery had
fallen off. It was attached with an alligator clip because I was unable
to get the solder to make a good connection when installed. Don Huffman
tried to solder it to the main battery terminal without success.
Connected the ground wire for the extra battery to the ground on the
CH12R regulator. Downloaded data to Ant4.dat. Replaced recalled CR10X-2M
with new CR10X-2M-XT. Downloaded *Ant4 v.2.00*. Everything looks like it
is working OK. Added desiccant.

[January 2, 2002]{.underline}: Downloaded data to Ant4.dat. Wind speed
sensor not working. Replaced with new MetOne wind sensor. Battery shows
evidence of small leak. Replaced battery with one from the Scott Base
Oil station that was dismantled. Everything looks like it is working OK.

[January 11, 2003]{.underline}: Downloaded data to SM4M storage module
Marble Point (B). Battery case still shows results of last year's leaky
battery. Removed old desiccant and added new desiccant. Installed
Campbell 107 air temperature sensor and 6-plate radiation shield at 80
inches. HMP45C air temperature/RH sensor is at 60 inches. Downloaded new
datalogger program Ant4 v.2.01. Program adds avg, max, and min values
for the 107 air temperature sensor. It also gives max 10-s wind speed.
Datalogger Li battery is 3.097 V. Set datalogger ID to 72. One 107 soil
temperature wire was exposed. Covered it with a thin layer of soil about
3mm. Another soil temperature sensor (#3) is taped to the underside of a
flat rock and was partially exposed. A small rock was added to its side
to shade it. Everything looks like it is working OK.

[January 7, 2004]{.underline}: Retrieved the Campbell SM4M storage
module S/N: 3467 (Marble Point (A)) and installed the alternate S/N 2800
(Marble Point (B)). Installed a second Campbell BP24 24-amp-hr YUASA
battery. Replaced the desiccant. Checked the Li battery. Did not clean
the leakage from the battery holder, due to the concern of possibly
damaging other components with the acidic dust.

[January 17, 2005]{.underline}: Retrieved the alternate Campbell SM4M
storage module S/N: 2800 (Marble Point (B)) and installed S/N 3467
(Marble Point (A)). Swapped outside battery. Used crimp type butt
splices to connect the wiring. Put date on the new battery. Outside
wiring was encased in automotive wire sheathing. Replaced the
acid-contaminated mounting hardware. Used paper towels with water and
baking soda to clean the NEMA. Swapped desiccant packs. Voltages:
SPR-13.44 vdc, station batteries-12.51 vdc, Li battery-3.13 vdc. Station
time 2:52 PM, actual time 3:58 PM, NZST. Station was reset back to NZST.
Drift spans two years because time was not reset last season. Taped down
loose wires. Re-buried near surface CSI-107 that had been exposed by the
wind. Wiped off the LI200 pyranometer. Took station pictures looking
N,E,S,W. Weather conditions: clear, -1C, calm. \[Note: Located the site
of the oil spill station that was removed in January of 2003. Removed 3
each of the remaining Vitel and CSI-107 sensors that had previously been
frozen in the soil. The two deepest ones are still frozen in, so the
wires were cut at a depth of about 18 inches, and reburied. Replaced the
soil and surface stones.\]

[January 10, 2006]{.underline}: Added two new battery containment boxes
that are located on the ground. Replaced one 24 amp-hr battery, which
was on the ground. Did not have enough insulated spade terminals (red
color), used butt slices. Secured boxes in place with rocks. Downloaded
data and program from datalogger. Changed the RH multiplier in the
program from 0.01 to 0.1 and uploaded the revised program. Swapped
storage modules. There was no difference between PC and station clock.
Everything else seemed to be working okay. Added three packs of
desiccant. Weather conditions: cloudy, -2°C, wind 2-5 mph.

[January 16, 2007]{.underline}: Station clock was 4 min behind.
Downloaded data and swapped storage modules. Replaced one 24Ah battery.
Added two desiccant packs. Everything seemed to be working okay.

[January 17, 2008]{.underline}: Downloaded data and swapped storage
modules. Station clock was 97 minutes behind. Reset clock. Lithium
battery was 3.1 volts. Took out the empty multiplexer. Replaced one 24Ah
battery and left female battery connector wire in other battery box on
the ground. Added two desiccant packs. Everything seemed to be working
okay. (The marble point revised program for the R.M. Young wind sensor
does not match data locations---program needs to be checked against
wiring diagram or enclosure photos.)

[January 19, 2009]{.underline}: Downloaded data and swapped storage
modules. Station clock was 2.5 minutes behind. Lithium battery was 3.1
volts. Replaced one 24Ah battery. Wind speed was not working---reading
0. Replaced MetOne wind sensor with an R.M. Young. Put wind sensor on
other side of crossarm. This side had the correct T-bracket for the R.M.
Young. Uploaded new program marbleR3.dld that takes into account the
R.M. Young wind sensor. Everything seemed to be working okay. Two of the
surface 107s were uncovered---repositioned them below the surface. The
MRC was 4 cm out of the ground.

DATA PROCESSING ALGORITHMS:

Vitel Hydra Probe soil moisture, temperature, complex dielectric
constant, electrical conductivity, and salinity are determined from the
raw data (four voltages), and a calibration option (1, 2, or 3),
depending on the soil texture, with a program supplied by Vitel, Inc.
Option 1 (sand) is used here.

DATA STORAGE AND ACCESS:

Contact Cathy Seybold or Deb Harms. Data can be downloaded from the NSSC
website at
[[http://soils.usda.gov/survey/scan/]{.underline}](http://soils.usda.gov/survey/scan/).
Data are in Excel files organized by calendar year. Each file consists
of a page containing all downloaded data for that year and 12 pages of
processed Vitel sensor data (one page for each sensor) with the
following column headings: SENSOR, SOIL (calibration option), ER (real
part of the soil dielectric constant), EI (imaginary part of the soil
dielectric constant), TEMP (soil temperature °C), ER-COR (temperature
corrected ER), EI_COR (temperature corrected EI), WATER (volume fraction
soil water content), SALINITY (soil salinity in g/l NaCl), SOIL_COND
(soil electrical conductivity in S/m or mhos/m), SOIL_COND_COR
(temperature corrected SOIL_COND in S/m or mhos/m), WATER_CON_COR
(temperature corrected soil water electrical conductivity in S/m or
mhos/m). The column headings for the annual data are: ID (site), YEAR,
DAY OF YEAR, HOUR, TIME, DATE, BATT VOLT (battery voltage), INT TEMP °C
(datalogger temperature), AIR TEMP (°C), RH (%), SOLAR RADIATION (w
m^-2^), WIND SPEED (m s^-1^), WIND DIR (deg from true north), 1V1 (2-cm
