Day Six: More research and compilation of blog

Today, I worked on doing a little more reading, and compiling the blog that you're reading right now!  I didn't complete any article summaries today, although I read 4 articles related to the topic that were cited in some of Chris Oishi's papers.  I also skimmed through his Ph.D dissertation, which was incredibly interesting by itself!  The blog compilation took a lot of time.  I also took the data from Thursday to today and put in Baseliner.  We don't have VPD or PAR measurements, so I didn't get any meaningful calibrations.  However, the sap flow measurements so far seem to indicate that there is a quantifiable amount of sap flowing, although it is not varying much between day and night, which indicates that to the tree, it is still winter!

I hope you enjoyed reading my blog!  I really enjoyed doing this project full-time during miniterm, and I really look forward to getting usable data when third trimester and spring starts!
