Site Description
The Nanangroe Plantation Plot Network is located in the southwest slopes of NSW west of Lake Burrinjuck and includes four exotic Pine Plantations (Nanangroe, Cotway, East Bungongo and Bungongo), as well as private properties adjacent to those plantations. Its research infrastructure is comprised of an array of stratified 2-ha long-term plots. Temporal visits occur annually / biennially (rotating sampling program). Between 2012 and 2018 the Nanangroe Plantation Plot Network was a member of Long Term Ecological Research Network (LTERN), Australia, a facility of the Australian Government's Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN)).

Data Policy Notes
LTERN encouraged the sharing of data and knowledge for the long-term benefit of the research community. Data sharing should only occur within a framework where data contributors receive appropriate recognition for their work, and where data users understand, in advance, the responsibilities placed upon them when they access and/or use another?s data.

To mitigate risks associated with threatened species, LTERN's Policywas to mediate access to spatial data.
