Fixed cameras installed at TERN Daintree Rainforest SuperSite, Cape Tribulation provide a time series of fine scale data as a long-term record of vegetation structure and condition. This dense time series of phenocam images provides data for analysis of ecological responses to climate variability, and when consolidated across the entire terrestrial ecosystem research network, supports calibration and validation of satellite-derived remote sensing data, ensuring delivery of higher quality results for broader scale environmental monitoring products.

TERN Daintree Rainforest SuperSite, Cape Tribulation is located in lowland complex mesophyll vine forest near Cape Tribulation. The site has more than 80 species including canopy trees belonging to the Meliaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Lauraceae, Myrtaceae and Apocynaceae families. For additional site information, see https://www.tern.org.au/tern-observatory/tern-ecosystem-processes/daintree-rainforest-supersite/.

Other images collected at the site include photopoints, digital hemispheric photography (DHP) and ancillary images of fauna and flora.
