The dataset is the normalized difference water index (NDWI) products from 1970s to 2020 over the Tibetan Plateau。The dataset is producted based on Landsat surface reflectance dataset. It is calculated by the NDWI equation which use the difference ratio between the green band and NIR band to enhance the water information, and then to weaken the information of vegetation, soil, buildings and other targets.And the corresponding production of quality identification documents (QA) is also generated to identify the cloud, ice and snow.NDWI is usually used to extract surface water information effectively, therefore it is widely used in water resoureces, hydrology, forestry and agriculture.

Data content: The data set products include impervious surface products with a resolution of 10 meters in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which can be used as a key parameter for related research on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau ecosystem. Data source and processing method: Product inversion is mainly based on Sentinel series data, considering joint features, combining depth spatial features, long-time NDVI and other exponential features, and topographic features, and using random forest model to achieve impervious surface information extraction. Data quality: The overall accuracy is high. Data application results and prospects: The data set will be continuously updated and can be used to further clarify the impact of human activities on the ecosystem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Aboveground biomass (AGB) is an important indicator for measuring ecosystem productivity.This dataset provides the forest aboveground biomass with a resolution of 30m in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from 1970s-2022. The biomass data is estimated using Landsat series data, based on actual ground data and some literature data, tree height data, and forest types including coniferous forest, broad-leaved forest and mixed forest.Through data disclosure and free download services, it provides basic data support for related research on the dynamic changes of forest ecosystems on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and also provides a scientific basis for sustainable forest management in this region.

Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR) is a key physiological variable in the study of carbon cycling and is one of the basic variables to describe vegetation ecosystems. The classification results of surface vegetation types in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region are obtained based on the Landsat reflectance data(30m spatial resolution). According to NDVI of different vegetation types, the remote sensing inversion model is constructed to produce the growing season FPAR products for each vegetation type. This product can be used as one of the parameters to calculate vegetation carbon sequestration and evaluate vegetation ecosystem status.
