TEAM Climate Monitoring Protocol 3.0

Precipitation gauge (TB4): Inspect the precipitation gauge every time the station is visited.

Remove any debris from the collection funnel or debris screen. Every two weeks, remove the

cover of the gauge to make sure no insects or other animals are present inside. Carefully check

that the tipping bucket mechanism is moving freely (DO NOT tip it because a rainfall event will

be recorded in the data logger). Inspect the siphoning tubes attached to the bottom of the gauge

and make sure they are clear and free from debris (otherwise water will back up into the gauge).

Check the bubble level to ensure the gauge is leveled. If needed, correct the level by adjusting

the nuts on the mounting brackets.

Solar radiation (LI 200X): Every month, check the level of the pyranometers and adjust if

necessary. Remove any debris on the sensor head by using a soft brush. If the debris is

substantial (e.g. a bird dropping) note it in the maintenance log (Appendix A.3), and carefully

clean the surface of the sensor with a humid cloth (do not use chemical cleaners). Inspect the

drain hole next to the sensor and ensure it is open and free of debris.

6.3.5 Power systems maintenance

Solar panel: Clean the surface of the solar panel every month by removing any debris, bird

droppings, dust, etc. This will keep the panel working at the maximum efficiency possible. Using

a voltmeter, measure the voltage differential coming out of the panel; not the regulator (at

maximum efficiency - full sun, this should be about 17.9 V).

Battery: Every month check the battery to ensure it is working properly. Check that all the cable

connections are tight and clean (no salt deposits or rust). When extracting data from the data

logger examine the battery voltage minimum logs for any warning signs. Normal minimum

voltages should be between 11-13 V. If the voltage of the rechargeable battery dips below 10.5 V

this can cause irreversible damage to the battery. If this is the case, immediately replace the

battery.
