The Australian SuperSite Network (SuperSites) provides the research community with national scale acoustic sensor data collected at each SuperSite. Acoustic sensors are configured to record for 12 hours per day (6 hours around dawn and 6 hours around dusk). This data package contains acoustic sensor data recorded from within the vicinity of the Core 1 hectare at the TERN SEQ Peri-urban SuperSite at the Samford Ecological Research Facility. Data is in WAV format recorded at 44,100 Hz in stereo. Recordings are available for listening and download at https://bioacoustics.tern.org.au/ 0501 0502 0602 0608 anz-src TERN South East Queensland Peri-urban SuperSite Samford acoustic recording bioacoustic bird fauna soundscape CC-BY-4_0 2017-01-01 2017-12-31 Samford Ecological Research Facility, Samford, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia 152.87 152.87 -27.39 -27.39 Ms Siobhann McCafferty Queensland University of Technology Research Data Coordinator.

Wildlife Acoustics Songmeter SM2 acoustic sensors were configured to record continuously at 44,100 Hz in WAV format. Sensors were powered using external solar power and 12v deep cycle batteries. The acoustic sensor is configured to record for 12 hours per day (6 hours around dawn and 6 hours around dusk). The acoustic sensor adjusts itself to record at the correct time (relative to sunset and sunrise) throughout the year using the GPS coordinates of the site.
