The dataset of water content of forest canopy components (the twig and the leaf) measurements was obtained at the super site (100m×100m) around the Dayekou Guantan forest station on Jun. 5, 2008. The sample tree was selected according to different diameters at breast height. 5 diameter classes were divided and in each class, 10 trees were selected and altogether 30 trees were selected as sampling trees. Branches in different parts were picked by the tree pruner and the twig and the leaf were separated manually, whose green weight was measured by the scales on the scene and dry weight by oven drying in the lab. Those provide reliable data for the reconstruction of the 3D structure of the forest scene, and for modelling active and passive remote sensing mechanisms and the simulation of remote sensing images.

It is jointly compiled by more than 250 experts from 53 units such as research institutes of Chinese Academy of Sciences, relevant ministries and commissions, relevant departments of various provinces and regions, colleges and universities. It is another summative achievement of vegetation ecologists in China over 40 years after the publication of monographs such as vegetation of China Basic map of natural resources and natural conditions of the family. It is based on the rich first-hand information accumulated by vegetation surveys carried out throughout the country over the past half century, and the materials obtained by modern technologies such as aerial remote sensing and satellite images, as well as the latest research achievements in geology, soil science and climatology. It reflects in detail the distribution of vegetation units of 11 vegetation type groups, 796 formations and sub formations of 54 vegetation types, horizontal and vertical zonal distribution laws, and also reflects the actual distribution of more than 2000 dominant species of plants, major crops and cash crops in China, as well as the close relationship between dominant species and soil and ground geology.

The data are from 2011 to 2012. A 30m×30m Picea crassifolia canopy interception sample plot was set up in the Picea crassifolia sample plot at an altitude of 2800m m. A siphon raingauge model DSJ2 (Tianjin Meteorological Instrument Factory) was set up on the open land of the river about 50m from the sample plot to observe the rainfall outside the forest and its characteristics. Penetrating rain in the forest adopts a combination of manual observation and automatic observation. Automatic observation is mainly realized through a penetrating rain collection system arranged in the interception sample plot, which consists of a water collecting tank and an automatic recorder. Two 400cm×20cm water collecting tanks are connected with DSJ2 siphon rain gauge, and the change characteristics of penetrating rain under the forest are continuously recorded by an automatic recorder. Due to the spatial variability of the canopy structure of Picea crassifolia forest in the sample plot, a standard rainfall tube for manual observation is also arranged in the sample plot to observe the penetrating rain in the forest. Ninety rainfall tubes with a diameter of 20cm are arranged in the sample plot at intervals of 3m. After each precipitation event ends and the penetrating rain in the forest stops, the amount of water in the rain barrel will be emptied and the penetrating rain in the barrel will be measured with the rain cup.

Investigation of plant sample plots can reflect the structure and distribution of plant communities, the declining succession of plant communities and their interrelation with environmental changes, reveal the ecological damage process in the lower reaches of the Tarim River, and provide scientific basis for the environmental remediation of the Tarim River Basin in the large-scale development of the western part of the country. According to the difference of species composition of plant communities in different sections of 9 monitoring sections in the lower reaches of Tarim River, plant sample plots are set up along the direction perpendicular to the river course in each monitoring section. Due to the different vegetation growth in each section, the size and number of sample plots are not equal. Among them, the sample plot of 5m×5m is arranged on the section of the herbaceous community. 30m×30m sample plots are arranged on the section where vegetation grows sparsely or is basically free of herbaceous plants, and 4 15m× 15 m arbor and shrub sample plots are arranged at intervals of 15 m; 50m×50m sample plots are arranged on the section where arbor, shrub and grass vegetation all occupy a certain proportion. In each plot of 50×50m, four plots of 25m×25m are set at 25m intervals to record the individual number, coverage, DBH, basal diameter, height and crown width of each tree (or shrub). At the same time, 4 small sample plots of 5m×5m are set up in each sample plot to record the individual number, coverage, height and other indicators of each herbaceous plant, and GPS is used to locate and record the altitude and longitude and latitude of each sample plot.
