Calperum Mallee Phenocam Images and Phenology Data Collection

Fixed cameras installed at the Calperum Mallee SuperSite 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.
Images are captured half hourly during daylight hours. Images and data products, including timeseries of the Green Chromatic Coordinate (Gcc) for a region-of-interest (ROI) that delineates an area of specific vegetation type, are made available on an almost real-time basis.

The Calperum Mallee SuperSite was established in 2011 and is located on Calperum Station, near Renmark, in South Australia. The property was a pastoral grazing lease for nearly 150 years, and has suffered grazing-induced modifications to its ecosystems that are now being actively restored. It includes mallee woodlands (burnt in 2014) and riverine vegetation. The main plant species are black box, river red gum and lignum.

Other images collected at the site include photopoints, digital cover photography (DCP), panoramic landscape and ancillary images of fauna and flora.

部署于卡尔佩鲁马利超级观测站（Calperum Mallee SuperSite）的固定监测相机，可产出精细尺度的时间序列数据，作为植被结构与健康状况的长期观测档案。这套密集的物候相机（phenocam）图像时间序列数据集，可用于解析生态系统对气候波动的响应；当将其整合至全域陆地生态系统研究网络后，还能支撑卫星遥感数据的定标与验证工作，为更大尺度的环境监测产品提供更高质量的分析成果。

图像于日间每半小时采集一次。数据集包含划定特定植被类型区域的感兴趣区域（Region-of-Interest, ROI）绿色色度坐标（Green Chromatic Coordinate, Gcc）时间序列等图像与数据产品，且以近乎实时的方式对外发布。

卡尔佩鲁马利超级观测站（Calperum Mallee SuperSite）始建于2011年，坐落于澳大利亚南澳州伦马克市附近的卡尔佩鲁姆牧场（Calperum Station）。该地块曾作为畜牧放牧租用地近150年，其生态系统因放牧活动遭受了显著改造，目前正处于积极的生态修复进程中。观测站涵盖2014年过火的马利灌丛林地与河岸植被，主要植物物种包括黑桉、河岸赤桉与盐生灌木 lignum。如需获取该站点的更多信息，请访问：https://www.tern.org.au/tern-observatory/tern-ecosystem-processes/calperum-mallee-supersite/

该站点还采集了其他类型的图像，包括定点摄影点位图像、数字化植被盖度摄影（Digital Cover Photography, DCP）、全景景观图以及动植物辅助观测影像。
