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.

Purpose
Leaf area index is the preferred measure of cover for vegetation and is a key variable used in total biomass estimation and in carbon cycling prediction models.

Lineage
Digital cover photography images were taken at the core 1-ha plot in the Tumbarumba Wet Eucalypt site in 2014. For complete methodology of plot set-up, image collection and leaf area calculation, please see attached Karan, M. (2020). SuperSites Vegetation Monitoring Protocols v 1.21.
