TERN’s Cumberland Plain SuperSite is in remnant Eucalyptus species woodland on the Cumberland Plain, at the University of Western Sydney’s Hawkesbury campus at Richmond, New South Wales. Associated research infrastructure extends into the Blue Mountains ecoregion. The traditional custodians are the Darug peoples, and we invite all interested parties to work with us and share their stories.
The key research questions addressed by users of the Cumberland Plain Woodland SuperSite relate to processes controlling biogeochemical fluxes and the impacts of extreme climate events and climate change thereon, biodiversity, conservation management and restoration of remnant Eucalypt woodland and pastures of Western Sydney.
Since its inception, TERN’s infrastructure has enabled the publication of more than 1600 peer-reviewed scientific journal articles or books.
