This phenological data is based on the MOD13A2 data of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau from 2000 to 2015 (with a temporal resolution of 16 days and a spatial resolution of 1km). The NDVI curve is fitted using the segmented Gaussian function in the TIMESAT software. The spring phenology, autumn phenology and the length of the growth season are extracted using the dynamic threshold method. The thresholds of spring phenology and autumn phenology are set to 0.2 and 0.7 respectively. The phenological data were masked. Among them, the mask rules are: 1) The maximum value of NDVI must be met between June and September; 2) The average value of NDVI from June to September shall not be less than 0.2; 3) The average NDVI in winter shall not exceed 0.3.

This datasets include the spatial distribution multi-year means of the SOS and EOS from 2000 to 2018, and the temporal trends of the SOS and EOS from 1982 to 1999 and 2000 to 2020 across the Tibetan Plateau. Based on AVHRR NDVI, MODIS NDVI, and EVI, four steps were used to minimize bias and noise in SOS and EOS extracted from time series of vegetation indexes. First, pixels with multiple-year average vegetation indexes lower than a threshold are regarded as areas of low or no vegetation coverage and are excluded. The pixels with weak seasonality of greenness are also excluded. Second, values of vegetation indexes contaminated by snow cover, ice, or both in winter (December–early March) are substituted with the mean of non-contaminated, high-quality vegetation indexes values during winter. Third, remaining negative vegetation indexes bias caused by clouds and aerosols in other seasons is calibrated by a Savitzky–Golay filtering technique. Finally the improved annual time series of vegetation indexes is fitted to double logistic or modified double logistic functions. Based on thresholds and inflection-point, the SOS and EOS across the Tibetan Plateau were extracted. The spatial resolution of the datasets were 250m and 1/12°. The data quality is reliable.

The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) can accurately reflect the surface vegetation coverage. At present, NDVI time series data based on spot / vegetation and MODIS satellite remote sensing images have been widely used in the research of vegetation dynamic change monitoring, land use / cover change detection, macro vegetation cover classification and net primary productivity estimation at various scales. Evi is similar to the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and can be used to quantify vegetation greenness. However, evi corrects for some atmospheric conditions and canopy background noise and is more sensitive in areas with dense vegetation. It contains an "L" value to adjust the canopy background, a "C" value as the atmospheric drag coefficient, and a value from the blue band (b). These enhancements allow the ratio between R and NIR values to be calculated exponentially while reducing background noise, atmospheric noise and saturation in most cases. This research work mainly focuses on post-processing NDVI and evi data, and gives a more reliable vegetation situation of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau in 2013 and 2018 through transformation of projection coordinate system, data fusion, maximum value synthesis method, elimination of outliers and clipping. The spatial resolution of the data is 0.05 °, and the temporal resolution is month.

Fractional Vegetation Cover (FVC) refers to the percentage of the vertical projected area of vegetation to the total area of the study area. It is an important indicator to measure the effectiveness of ecological protection and ecological restoration. It is widely used in the fields of climate, ecology, soil erosion and so on. FVC is not only an ideal parameter to reflect the productivity of vegetation, but also can play a good role in evaluating topographic differences, climate change and regional ecological environment quality. This research work is mainly to post process two sets of glass FVC data, and give a more reliable vegetation coverage of the circumpolar Arctic Circle (north of 66 ° n) and the Qinghai Tibet Plateau (north of 26 ° n to 39.85 °, east longitude 73.45 ° to 104.65 °) in 2013 and 2018 through data fusion, elimination of outliers and clipping.

NDVI reflects the background effects of plant canopy, such as soil, wet ground, snow, dead leaves, roughness, etc., and is related to vegetation cover. It is one of the important parameters to reflect the crop growth and nutrient information. According to this parameter, the N demand of crops in different seasons can be known, which is an important guide to the reasonable application of N fertilizer. Correct NDVI (C-NDVI) is the value of NDVI after excluding the influence of climate elements (temperature, precipitation, etc.) on NDVI. Taking precipitation as an example, studies on the lag effect of precipitation on vegetation growth show that the lag time of precipitation effects varies in different regions due to differences in vegetation composition and soil types. In this study, we post-processed the MODIS NDVI data and firstly correlated the NDVI value of the current month with the precipitation of the current month, the average value of the precipitation of the current month with that of the previous month, and the average value of the precipitation of the current month with that of the previous two months to determine the optimal lag time. The NDVI was regressed on precipitation and air temperature to obtain the correlation coefficients, and then the corrected NDVI values were calculated by the difference between the MODIS NDVI and the NDVI regressed on climate factors. We corrected NDVI using climate data to give reliable vegetation correction indices for the circum-Arctic Circle (range north of 66°N) and the Tibetan Plateau (range 26°N to 39.85°N and 73.45°E to 104.65°E) for 2013 and 2018. The spatial resolution of the data is 0.5 degrees and the temporal resolution is monthly values.

As the basis of ecosystem material and energy cycle, net primary productivity (NPP) of vegetation can reflect the carbon sequestration capacity of vegetation at regional and global scales. It is an important indicator to evaluate the quality of terrestrial ecosystem. Aiming at the production of net primary productivity products of vegetation, based on the principle of light energy utilization model and coupling remote sensing, meteorological, vegetation and soil type data, the modeling of ecosystem productivity in national barrier area was studied. In terms of parameter selection, the photosynthetic effective radiation (APAR) is calculated from the spot/veg etation NDVI satellite remote sensing data, China's vegetation map, total solar radiation and temperature data; Compared with the soil water molecular model, the regional evapotranspiration model can simplify the parameters and enhance the operability of the model. Taking photosynthetic effective radiation and actual light energy utilization as input variables of CASA (Carnegie Ames Stanford approach) model, the net primary productivity of land vegetation on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau with a resolution of 1km from 2000 to 2018 was estimated based on the parametric model.

This diurnal (hourly) land surface albedo product is with a spatial resolution of 0.02 ° x 0.02 ° over the Tibet Plateau from 2016-2019. Multi-sensory data is used to retrieve the Extended Multi-Sensor Combined BRDF Inversion model (EMCBI) developed from a kernel-driven BRDF model and coupled with topographic effects, and prior knowledge is introduced for quality control inversion. The high-precision BRDF / albedo of good spatial-temporal continuity is retrieved by combining MODIS reflectance data (a polar orbiting satellite) and himiwarri-8 AHI land surface reflectance (a geostationary satellite ). MODIS land surface reflectance data and AHI TOA reflectance data are downloaded from the official websites. After registration, atmospheric correction and other processing, the daily resolution BRDF is synthesized with a period of 5 days, and then the albedo is estimated. The black sky albedo is calculated hourly from 9:00 to 18:00 at Beijing Time (UTM zone 8). The validation results show that it meets the accuracy requirements of albedo application, and agreed well with the in situ albedo inner-daily variation.Tt has more advantages in capturing rapidly changing surface features, especially the inner-daily variations, and has better temporal and spatial continuity.

1) Data content: the modified universal soil and water loss equation (RUSLE) is used to estimate the soil water erosion modulus at the plot scale. The soil conservation is used to measure the ability of the ecosystem to reduce soil erosion caused by precipitation, and to characterize the amount of water erosion reduction caused by vegetation, that is, the difference between the amount of soil water erosion under actual surface coverage and extreme degradation. Based on the above process, a 30-year (every five years from 1990 to 2020) ecological function map of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau is made, including two parts of water conservation and soil conservation data sets. 2) Data source and processing method: Based on ecosystem type data, MODIS NDVI products, 1:1 million soil attribute data, meteorological interpolation and elevation data, the atlas uses the precipitation storage method to estimate the water conservation of forest and grassland ecosystems, and measures its water conservation capacity by the hydrological regulation effect of ecosystem, that is, the increment of water conservation compared with bare land. 3) Data quality: the data has a temporal resolution of 5 years and a spatial resolution of 1000m, which can meet the needs of high-precision Ecosystem Assessment on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau. 4) Data application achievements and prospects: the statistical results show that in recent 30 years, the spatial distribution of water conservation work energy on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau has shown an overall distribution pattern of high in the southeast and low in the northwest, and gradually decreasing from the southeast to the northwest.
