TERN’s Mitchell Grass Rangeland SuperSite is near Longreach in western Queensland, in the Mitchell Grass Downs bioregion, which covers approximately 47 million hectares (14% of Queensland and 6% of Australia). Traditional owners at this site are the Iningai people.
Research using the Mitchell Grass Rangeland SuperSite is investigating the impact of long-term stocking densities on net primary productivity (NPP), carbon exchange and evapotranspiration from the Mitchell grasslands.
Since its inception, TERN’s infrastructure has enabled the publication of more than 1600 peer-reviewed scientific journal articles or books.
