1) The data content is the exposure age of the Cosmogenic Nuclide 10Be of the moraine left by the glaciers around the Muztagh Ata peak in the Holocene, including the sampling location, 10Be concentration, calculation results, etc. 2) 10Be concentration data are from published literature. Referring to the latest 10Be yield in the world, three different yield correction methods are used to calculate the exposure age of moraine samples. 3) Compared with the chronological data of the original published literature, this data is more accurate, and the chronological results given by the three methods can be compared with each other, with better concentration within the error range. 4) The data can be used to understand the Holocene change law of glaciers in Pamir region and provide data support for chronological comparison of glacial evolution in the northwest of the plateau.

1) The data include annual scale oxygen isotope and accumulation records of ice cores from 1900 to 2011, which respectively reflect the temperature and precipitation changes in the study area; 2) For analysis, the ice core samples were first measured using Picaro δ 18O and as per δ The seasonal variation characteristics of 18O determine the age of ice core; The accumulation of ice cores is calculated according to the density of ice cores, the length of ice cores per year and the glacier flow model; 3) Professional laboratory personnel and front-line scientific research personnel operate and maintain the instrument to ensure the reliability of analysis data; 4) The data can be used to analyze the climate and environmental changes in the typical westerly region of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau over the past 100 years, and can be used to explore the evolution of glaciers in this period, providing scientific reference for predicting the future evolution of glaciers, changes in hydrology and water resources and their impact on human activities.
