As invited by Rita who is the one of my committee member,  Antonio and I had a small presentation on our current research at this experimental site. The audiences are from Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development (FLNRO). They were interested in how thinning treatment benifits the community. We introduced the experimental design and the method at my study site, and the research progress in Spain. The presentation went well! Those guests said that they were curious about the experiment results and would like to attend my master degree thesis defense. Haha!

However, we still couldn’t be able to solve the problem of soil moisture sensor, and Antonio suggested that the sensor did not contact well with the soil, so let us wait for the rain, as it can soft the soil and make it fully contact with sensors.

The climate stations started work!
