Andrew and George Koch traveled to Mendocino County, California, to meet up with colleagues from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and UC Davis at the\u00a0new redwood flux towers<\/a>\u00a0at Jackson Demonstration State Forest near Fort Bragg. With help from Housen Chu (LBNL) and Kosana Suvocarev (UC Davis), and their talented field crew, Andrew and George managed to get 61 automated point dendrometers and 11 soil moisture sensors installed within the footprints of the\u00a0Parlin<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Mitchell<\/a> towers. Former Richardson Lab visitor Deklan Mengering is now part of the UC Davis team, and UC Davis PhD student Lily Klinek (who visited NAU in January) also showed up to lend a helping hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A special bonus was the visit by Dr. Aaron Teets (NAU PhD 2022), who dropped by at the end of the trip for a seafood dinner with Andrew and George. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to everyone who helped make this a remarkably successful outing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
