Time series dataset of the long-term dry-wet index in Western China (AD1500-BP2000)

Original information on the long-term dry-wet index (1500-2000) in western China is obtained by integrating data on dry-wet/drought-flood conditions and precipitation amounts in the western region published over more than a decade. The integrated data sets include tree rings, ice cores, lake sediments, historical materials, etc., and there are more than 50 such data sets. In addition to widely collecting representative data sets on dry-wet changes in the western region, this study also clarifies the main characteristics of the dry-wet changes and climate zones in the western region, and the long-term dry-wet index sequence was generated by extracting representative data from different zones. The data-based dry-wet index sequence has a 10-year temporal resolution for five major characteristic climate zones in the western region over nearly four hundred years and a high resolution (annual resolution) for three regions over the past five hundred years. The five major characteristic climate zones in the western region with a 10-year dry-wet index resolution over the last four hundred years are the arid regions, plateau bodies, northern Xinjiang, Hetao region, and northeastern plateau, and the three regions with a annual resolution over the last five hundred years are the northeastern plateau, Hetao region, and northern Xinjiang. For a detailed description of the data, please refer to the data file named Introduction of Dry-Wet Index Sequence Data for West China.doc.

Spatial distribution of forest biomass 1m resolution in Tianlaochi watershed (1961-2010)

The sample plot survey data are as follows: in August 2013, 30 forest sample plots were set up in tianlaochi basin, with the sample plot specification of 10 m×20 m, and the long side of the sample plot was parallel to the slope direction, including 26 Qinghai spruce forests, 2 Qilian yuanberlin forests and 2 spruce-cypress mixed forests. within the sample plot, the diameter at breast height (diameter at trunk height of 1.3 m) of each tree was measured by using a ruler. Using hand-held ultrasonic altimeter to measure the tree height and the height under branches (the height of the first living branch at the lower end of the crown) of each tree, measuring the crown width in the north-south direction and the east-west direction by using a tape scale, and positioning the sample plot by using differential GPS. Taking the carbon storage data of the sample plot as the optimal control condition, using Kriging interpolation to obtain the biomass spatial distribution map driving field, using HASM algorithm to simulate the forest biomass spatial distribution map of the waterlogging pool, the simulation results conform to the vegetation distribution law of the study area, and obtain better effects.

Qilian Mountains integrated observatory network: Dataset of Heihe integrated observatory network (large aperture scintillometer of Sidaoqiao superstation, 2018)

This dataset contains the flux measurements from the large aperture scintillometer (LAS) at Sidaoqiao Superstation in the Heihe integrated observatory network from January 1 to December 31 in 2018. There were one German BLS900 at Sidaoqiao Superstation. The north tower was set up with the BLS900 receiver and the south tower was equipped with the BLS900 transmitter. The site (north: 101.137° E, 42.008° N; south: 101.131° E, 41.987 N) was located in Ejinaqi, Inner Mongolia. The underlying surfaces between the two towers were tamarisk, populus, bare land and farmland. The elevation is 873 m. The effective height of the LAS was 25.5 m, and the path length was 2350 m. The data were sampled 1 minute. The raw data acquired at 1 min intervals were processed and quality controlled. The data were subsequently averaged over 30 min periods, in which sensible heat flux was iteratively calculated by combining Cn2 with meteorological data according to the Monin-Obukhov similarity theory. The main quality control steps were as follows: (1) The data were rejected when Cn2 exceeded the saturated criterion (Cn2>7.58E-14). (2) The data were rejected when the demodulation signal was small (Average X Intensity<1000). (3) The data were rejected when collected during precipitation. (4) The data were rejected if collected at night when weak turbulence occurred (u* was less than 0.1 m/s). In the iteration process, the universal functions of Thiermann and Grassl, 1992 was selected. Detailed can refer to Liu et al. (2011, 2013). Several instructions were included with the released data. (1) The missing data from the BLS900 instrument were denoted by -6999. (2) The dataset contained the following variables: Date/time (yyyy/m/d h:mm), the structural parameter of the air refractive index (Cn2, m-2/3), and the sensible heat flux (H_LAS, W/m^2). In this dataset, a time of 0:30 corresponds to the average data for the period between 0:00 and 0:30, and the data were stored in *.xlsx format. Moreover, suspicious data were marked in red. For more information, please refer to Liu et al. (2018) (for sites information), Liu et al. (2011) (for data processing) in the Citation section.

Dataset of land data assimilation result of west China (2002)

The research project on land surface data assimilation system in western China belongs to the major research plan of "environmental and ecological science in western China" of the national natural science foundation. the person in charge is researcher Li Xin of the institute of environment and engineering in cold and arid regions of the Chinese academy of sciences. the project runs from January 2003 to December 2005. The output data set of the Land Surface Assimilation System in Western China is one of the data achievements of the project. It is a Chinese Land Surface Data Assimilation System constructed by Dr. Huang Chun Lin and researcher Li Xin of the Institute of Cold and Arid Region Environment and Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences. CoLM model is used as a model operator to couple microwave radiation transmission models for different surface states such as soil (including melting and freezing), snow cover, etc. and to assimilate passive microwave observations (SSM/I and AMSR-E), so that the system can finally output assimilation data of soil moisture, soil temperature, snow cover, frozen soil, sensible heat, latent heat, evaporation, etc. with higher accuracy. Data format and naming: It is stored in a monthly folder and contains 24 hours of data every day. The naming rules are as follows: YYYMMDDHH.grid, where YY is the year (2002), MM is the month, DD is the day, HH is the hour,. grid and. flux are file extensions, the former is the state variable output result and the latter is the flux output result. The file format is a binary FLOAT value, that is, every 4 bytes represents a value.

GIMMS NDVI3g dataset for Sanjiangyuan (1982-2015)

The data set is NDVI data of long time series acquired by NOAA's Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) sensor. The time range of the data set is from 1982 to 2015. In order to remove the noise in NDVI data, maximum synthesis and multi-sensor contrast correction are carried out. A NDVI image is synthesized every half month. The data set is widely used in the analysis of long-term vegetation change trend. The data set is cut out from the global data set, so as to carry out the research and analysis of the source areas of the three rivers separately. The data format of this data set is GeoTIFF with spatial resolution of 8 km and temporal resolution of 2 weeks, ranging from 1982 to 2015. Data transfer coefficient is 10000, NDVI = ND/10000.
