The atmospheric heat source dataset of Tibetan Plateau based on satellites and stations (1984-2015)

The atmospheric heat source dataset of Tibetan Plateau based on satellites and stations (1984-2015)


As the third pole of the Earth, the Tibetan Plateau has a significant impact on regional and global weather and climate as a heat source in spring and summer. In order to explore the temporal and spatial variation characteristics of multi-scale thermal forcing in different time on the plateau, it is necessary to establish a set of plateau heat source (collection) data based on observation data of continuous and reliable long-term observation. Based on the meteorological elements (surface temperature, surface air temperature, wind speed at the height of 10m, daily cumulative precipitation, etc.) of the 80 (32) observation stations on the Tibetan Plateau from 1979 to 2016 (1960-2016) of China Meteorological Bureau, the sensible heat(SH) and latent heat(LH) was calculated. Meanwhile, using satellite data processing to obtain the net radiation flux (RC) from 1984 to 2015 on the plateau, and then a set of quality controlled long-term plateau heat source data was obtained. This data set considers the diurnal variation of the overall heat transfer coefficient when calculating the surface sensible heat flux.


File naming and required software

The data type is NetCDF, named by the way of **_NN_day.nc and **_NN_mon.nc. ** is LH, NR, SH, which represent latent heat, net radiation and sensible heat flux, NN indicates the number of stations, day and mon indicate daily or monthly data, respectively.
