This dataset contains audio files for Calperum Mallee SuperSite. The site was established in 2010 and is located on Calperum Station, near Renmark, in South Australia. The property was a pastoral grazing lease for nearly 150 years, and suffered grazing-induced modifications to its ecosystems that are now being actively restored following removal of sheep in 1994. The area includes mallee woodlands and riverine vegetation. A significant amount of the mallee woodlands was burnt in January 2014. The mallee species are multi-stemmed eucalyptus trees (Eucalyptus dumosa, E. incrassata, E. oleosa and E. socialis) while the sparsely distributed mid-storey species come from Eremophila, Hakea, Olearia, Senna and Melaleuca genera. The spaced understory is predominately clumps of spiny grass (Triodia spp.). For additional site information, see Daintree Rainforest SuperSite

In 2019 four acoustic recorders were set up to collect audio data continuously as part of the Australian Acoustic Observatory (A2O) project. Two recorders were placed in relatively wet habitats and two in relatively dry habitats.
