Digital Hemispherical Photography (DHP) from TERN Alice Mulga SuperSite

Created 25/01/2026

Updated 25/01/2026

Digital Hemispherical Photography (DHP) upward-looking images are collected three times per year to capture vegetation and crown cover at the Alice Mulga SuperSite. These images are used to estimate Leaf Area Index (LAI).

TERN’s Alice Mulga SuperSite is approximately 200 km north of Alice Springs on Pine Hill Cattle Station in the Northern Territory. It lies in the expansive arid and semi-arid portion of mainland Australia that receives less than 500 mm of annual rainfall. For additional site information, see Alice Mulga Supersite.

Other images collected at the site include digital cover photography (DCP), photopoints, phenocam time-lapse images taken from fixed under and overstorey cameras and ancillary images of fauna and flora.
