Robson Creek Rainforest Phenocam Images and Phenology Data Collection
공공데이터포털
Fixed cameras installed at TERN Robson Creek Rainforest SuperSite provide a time series of fine scale data as a long-term record of vegetation structure and condition. This dense time series of phenocam images provides data for analysis of ecological responses to climate variability, and when consolidated across the entire terrestrial ecosystem research network, supports calibration and validation of satellite-derived remote sensing data, ensuring delivery of higher quality results for broader scale environmental monitoring products. Images are captured half hourly during daylight hours. Images and data products, including timeseries of the Green Chromatic Coordinate (Gcc) for a region-of-interest (ROI) that delineates an area of specific vegetation type, are made available on an almost real-time basis. The 25 hectare site lies on the Atherton Tablelands in the wet tropical rainforests of Australia at 680-740 m elevation. It is situated in Danbulla National Park within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. The forest is classified as Regional Ecosystem (RE) 7.3.36a, complex mesophyll vine forest. The climate is seasonal with approximately 60% of rain falling between January and March and the landform is moderately inclined with a low relief. There are 208 species in the site, and average canopy height is 28 m, ranging from 23 to 44 m. All stems ≥ 10 cm diameter are measured, tagged and mapped. For additional site information, see https://www.tern.org.au/tern-observatory/tern-ecosystem-processes/robson-creek-rainforest-supersite/. Other images collected at the site include photopoints, digital cover photography (DCP) and ancillary images of fauna and flora.
Robson Creek, Invertebrate Fauna Survey, Far North Queensland Rainforest Site, 25 Ha Plot, 2013
공공데이터포털
This record contains information on the Invertebrate Fauna Survey, from the 25 hectare study site in Robson Creek, Far North Queensland. Information on the total number of individuals of invertebrates sampled from understorey trees have been documented from 10 species of trees, with five individuals per species sampled. Tree species selection was based on the rarity in the study site, i.e. 'common' or 'rare' in the 25 ha plot.
