Australian Supersite Network

A national Australian Supersite Network will be developed, which will extend the capability of intensive Long-Term Ecological Research Network (LTERN) sites through the addition of flux towers (in conjunction with OzFlux ) and the deployment of other remote, intensive ecosystem measurement devices (e.g. acoustic monitoring).
