What  is  TERN  

     •  Na8onal  Infrastructure  for  collec8ng,  storing  and  sharing  data  sets  and  

knowledge  of  Australian  terrestrial  ecosystems.  •  Builds  on  past  and  current  data  collec8on  ac8vi8es  by  all  level  of  

government,  non-­‐government  and  research  organisa8ons.      

Key  outcome  

provide   a   shared   and   collabora8ve   research  infrastructure   to   address   Australia’s   cri8cal  ecosystem  science  and  management  challenges.  

•  Enable  more  coordina8on  and  collabora8on  •  Provide  physical  and  data  infrastructure  •  Build  a  community  

•  Collabora'on  and  co-­‐ordina'on:  Ecosystem  science  research  cycle(s)
