This release consists of flux tower measurements of the exchange of energy and mass between the surface and the atmospheric boundary-layer using eddy covariance techniques. Data were processed using PyFluxPro as described by Isaac et al. (2017) for the quality control and post-processing steps. The final, gap-filled product containing Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER) has been produced using the ONEFlux software as described in Pastorello et al. (2020). This data set has been produced as part of the FLUXNET Shuttle project.

The Wedge Tail flux tower (42°05'29"S, 147°04'46"E) is located on the traditional lands of the Lairmairrener people within the Silver Plains Reserve, a property managed by the Tasmanian Land Conservancy.Installed on 29 July 2024 by the University of Tasmania, the Wedge Tail flux tower is situated approximately 550 meters from the adjacent Silver Plains Flux Tower. The surrounding landscape is a gently south-southwest sloping, species-rich sedgeland and grassland, with a history of grazing. Positioned at an elevation of 860 meters, the site receives an average annual precipitation of approximately 900 mm. The soil at the site is organosol on a Jurassic dolerite geology. Average seasonal temperatures range from 16°C in summer to 6°C in winter.
