The Sanjiangyuan National Park

Brief Introduction:Located in the hinterland of the Tibetan Plateau, Sanjiangyuan region has an important strategic position in the national ecological civilization construction. To effectively promote the construction of a national park system, the National Development and Reform Commission and 13 other ministries and commissions jointly issued the Pilot plan for establishing national park system, and chose Qinghai Province to carry out the pilot program. On December 9, 2015, the General Secretary presided over the 19th meeting of the Central Leading Group for Comprehensively Deepening Reform, at which “The General Plan for Piloting China's Sanjiangyuan National Park System” was reviewed and approved. In March 2016, the State Office of the Office of the People's Republic of China issued a pilot plan, clarifying that Sanjiangyuan National Park consists of the Yellow River Source Park, the Yangtze River Source Park and the Lancang River Source Park, thus establishing the real beginning of the exploration of the national park system in China. In order to better support the construction of Sanjiangyuan National Park, with the support of the major science and technology project " Sanjiangyuan National Park Star-Space-Ground Integrated Ecological Monitoring and Data Platform Construction and Development and Application " in Qinghai Province, the Sanjiangyuan Star-Space-Ground Integrated Ecological Monitoring Data Platform was constructed to significantly improve the ecological monitoring coverage and multi-source heterogeneous data fusion capabilities of Sanjiangyuan National Park.

  • The meteorological data of Mt. Qomolangma, Namco, and Linzhi Stations on the Tibetan Plateau (2006-2008)

    The data set collects the long-term monitoring data on atmosphere, hydrology and soil from the Integrated Observation and Research Station of Multisphere in Namco, the Integrated Observation and Research Station of Atmosphere and Environment in Mt. Qomolangma, and the Integrated Observation and Research Station of the Alpine Environment in Southeast Tibet. The data have three resolutions, which include 0.1 seconds, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, and 24 hours. The temperature, humidity and pressure sensors used in the field atmospheric boundary layer tower (PBL) were provided by Vaisala of Finland. The wind speed and direction sensor was provided by MetOne of the United States. The radiation sensor was provided by APPLEY of the United States and EKO of Japan. Gas analysis instrument was provided by Licor of the United States, and the soil moisture content, ultrasonic anemometer and data collector were provided by CAMPBELL of the United States. The observing system is maintained by professionals on a regular basis (2-3 times a year), the sensors are calibrated and replaced, and the collected data are downloaded and reorganized to meet the meteorological observation specifications of the National Weather Service and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The data set was processed by forming a time continuous sequence after the raw data were quality-controlled, and the quality control included eliminating the systematic error caused by missing data and sensor failure.

  • SPOT Vegetation NDVI-based phenology for Sanjiangyuan (1999-2013)

    The data set includes the estimated data of the SOS (start of season) and the EOS (end of season) of vegetation in Sanjiangyuan based on 10-day synthetic NDVI products from the SPOT satellite. Two common phenological estimation methods were adopted: the threshold extraction method based on polynomial fitting (the term “poly” was included in the file names) and the inflection point extraction method based on double logistic function fitting (the term “sig” was included in the file names). These data can be used to analyse the relationship between vegetation phenology and climate change. The temporal coverage is from 1999 to 2013, and the spatial resolution is 1 km.
