Purpose
This activity build on existing investments by TERN, Ecosystem Modelling And Scaling infrastructure- which is about the ecophysiological measurements: the missing link between vegetation modelling, biodiversity and ecosystem function. Measurements on plant species growing under field conditions will link terrestrial ecosystem models with real ecosystems and their constituent diversity of plants.
Credit
We at TERN acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians throughout Australia, New Zealand and all nations. We honour their profound connections to land, water, biodiversity and culture and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
