This dataset includes the retrieved soil moisture products from the airborne PLMR microwave radiometer on 30 June, 7 July, 10 July, 26 July and 2 August, 2012 (UTC+8), in the HiWATER artificial oasis eco-hydrology experimental area of Heihe river basin. The soil moisture (SM), vegetation water content (VWC) and surface roughness (Hr) are simultaneously retrieved based on six brightness temperatures at three incidence angles (7°, 21.5°, 38.5°) and with dual polarization (H and V), by using the Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm. The spatial resolution of the soil moisture products is 700 m, which represent the ~5 cm surface soil moisture according to the L-band observation wavelength. This dataset is in the format of asc, and with UTM projection (47°N). The validation against the eco-hydrological wireless sensor network observations and artificial synchronized observation shows that the total accuracy of this dataset can achieve 0.05 cm^3/cm^3, and that of the products on 7 July and 10 July even less than 0.04 cm^3/cm^3. This dataset can be helpful for the land surface process/hydrological process simulation and data assimilation, surface flux estimation, artificial irrigation management and spatial scaling research.

The 1 km / 5-day FVC data set of Heihe River basin provides the 5-day FVC synthesis results in 2015. The data uses the data of Terra / MODIS, Aqua / MODIS, and domestic satellites fy3a / MERSI and fy3b / MERSI to build a multi-source remote sensing data set with a spatial resolution of 1 km and a time resolution of 5 days. The whole country is divided into different vegetation divisions and land types, and the conversion coefficient of NDVI and FVC is calculated respectively. The conversion coefficient look-up table and 1km / 5-day synthetic NDVI product production area 1km / 5-day synthetic FVC product are used. In the Heihe River Basin, 1 km / 5-day synthetic FVC products can directly obtain vegetation coverage ratio through high-resolution data to reduce the impact of low-resolution data heterogeneity; in addition, select the typical period of vegetation growth and change, obtain the corresponding growth curve parameters of each pixel by fitting the vegetation index of each pixel time series; and then cooperate with land use map and vegetation classification map, To find the representative uniform pixel of the region to train the conversion coefficient of vegetation index. Compared with the results of high-resolution aster reference FVC in Heihe River Basin, the first step is to aggregate the aster products in Heihe River basin to 1km scale by combining the measured ground data and using the scale up method, and to obtain the aster aggregate FVC data, which is based on spot vegetation remote sensing data released by geoland 2 project (geov1 for short) The results show that the results of geov1 are higher than those of ASTER image combined with ground measurement, and the results of 1 km / 5-day synthetic FVC products in Heihe River Basin are between the two, and the results of 1 km / 5-day synthetic FVC products in Heihe River Basin in the experimental area are better than those of geov1 products. In a word, the comprehensive utilization of multi-source remote sensing data to improve the estimation accuracy and time resolution of FVC parameter products can better serve the application of remote sensing data products.

The 30 m / month synthetic leaf area index (LAI) data set of Heihe River basin provides the monthly Lai synthetic products from 2011 to 2014. This data uses the domestic satellite HJ / CCD data with high time resolution (2 days after Networking) and spatial resolution (30 m) to construct the multi angle observation data set. Considering the impact of surface classification and terrain fluctuation, the algorithm is selected according to the characteristics of different vegetation types Choosing a suitable parameterization scheme of integrated model, inversion Lai based on look-up table method. The remote sensing data acquired every month can provide more angles and more observations than the single day sensor data, but the quality of multi-phase and multi angle observation data is uneven due to the difference of on orbit operation time and performance of the sensor. Therefore, in order to effectively use multi temporal and multi angle observation data, a data quality inspection scheme is designed. Using the Lai ground observation data of 9 forest quadrats, 20 farmland quadrats and 14 savanna quadrats from dayokou area in the upper reaches of Heihe River and Yingke and Linze areas in the middle reaches to verify the Lai in July, the inversion results are in good agreement with the measurement results, and the average error is less than 1; in addition, the Lai inversion results of the combined multi temporal and multi angle observation data are in good agreement with the ground measurement data （R2=0.9，RMSE=0.42）。 In a word, the 30 m / month synthetic leaf area index (LAI) data set of Heihe River Basin comprehensively uses multi temporal and multi angle observation data to improve the estimation accuracy and time resolution of parameter products, so as to better serve the application of remote sensing data products.

The data set contains all single glacial reserves (in KM3) in the Tibetan Plateau of 1970s and 2000s. This data set comes from the result data of the paper entitled "consolidating the Randolph glacier inventory and the glacier inventory of China over the Qinghai titanium plate and investigating glacier changes since the mid-20th century". The first draft of this paper has been completed and is planned to be submitted to earth system science data. The 1970s basic glacier catalog data in the dataset is extracted from Randolph glacier Inventory data set, 2000s basic glacial catalogue is from China's second glacial catalogue data set. Based on the glacial boundary extracted from the two data sets and combined with the grid based bedrock elevation data set (https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/global/global.html, DOI: 10.7289/v5c8276m) and the glacial table obtained by a slope dependent method Based on the surface elevation data set, the single glacier reserves in the two catalogues are calculated. In addition, the calculation results of single glacier reserves obtained in this study have been compared and verified with the calculation results of partial glacier reserves, relevant remote sensing data sets, and the global glacier thickness data set based on the average of multiple glacier model sets in multiple directions, and the errors in the calculation results have also been quantified. The establishment of the data set is expected to provide the data basis for the future regional water resources estimation and glacier ablation research, and the acquisition of the data also provides a new idea for the future glacier reserves research.

The dataset of ground truth measurements synchronizing with airborne WiDAS mission was obtained in the Linze grassland foci experimental area on Jul. 11, 2008. WiDAS, composed of four CCD cameras, one mid-infrared thermal imager (AGEMA 550), and one infrared thermal imager (S60), can acquire CCD, MIR and TIR band data. These simultaneous ground data were mainly the land surface temperature measured by the hand-held infrared thermometer in the reed plot A, the saline plots B and C, the alfalfa plot D and the barley plot E, the maximum of which were 120m×120m and the minimum were 30m×30m. Data were archived in Excel file. See WATER: Dataset of setting of the sampling plots and stripes in the foci experimental area of Linze station for more information.

The dateset of spectral reflectance observations was obtained by ASD Fieldspec FRTM (Boulder, Co, USA, 350nm-2500nm, 3nm for the visible near-infrared band and 10nm for the shortwave infrared band) in the Biandukou foci experimental area from Mar. 7 to 21, 2008. Those provide reliable ground data for objects modelling and background modelling, remote sensing image simulation and scaling. Spectrum of dry and wet soil, the straw, the snow-covered land and the grassland was measured on Mar. 7 and the snow spectrum was measured on Mar. 21. The quadrates of 90m×90m and 450m×450m were compartmentalized into 81 subgrids of 10m×10m and 50m×50m. Based on the resolution of 30m×30m and 150m×150m, the influence of adjacent eight pixels on the center pixel was studied. Section lines of each subgrid were adopted to acquire the pixel spectrum, which were measured more than once for the mean value. The spectrum data were archived in the ASCII format, with the first five rows as the file header and the following two columns as wavelength (nm) and reflectance (percentage) respectively. Raw data were binary files direct from ASD (by ViewSpecPro).

On June 26, 2012, the satellite transit ground synchronous observation was carried out in the TerraSAR-X sample near the super station in the dense observation area of Daman. TerraSAR-X satellite carries X-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The daily transit image is HH / VV polarized, with a nominal resolution of 3 m, an incidence angle of 22-24 ° and a transit time of 19:03 (Beijing time), which mainly covers the ecological and hydrological experimental area of the middle reaches artificial oasis. The local synchronous data set can provide the basic ground data set for the development and verification of active microwave remote sensing soil moisture retrieval algorithm. Quadrat and sampling strategy: Six natural blocks are selected in the southeast of the super station, with an area of about 100 m × 100 m. One plot in the northwest corner of the sample plot is watermelon field, others are corn. The basis of sample selection is: (1) considering different vegetation types, i.e. watermelon and corn; (2) considering the visible light pixel, the sample size of 100m square can guarantee at least 4 30 M-pixel is located in the sample; (3) the location of the sample is near the super station, with convenient transportation. The observation of the super station is in the north, and there is a water net node on both sides of the East and the west, which makes it possible to integrate these observations in the future; (4) in addition, there are some obvious points around the sample, which can ensure that the geometric correction of the SAR image is more accurate in the future. Considering the resolution of the image, 21 splines (distributed from east to West) are collected at 5m intervals. Each line has 21 points (north-south direction) at 5m intervals. Three hydroprobe data acquisition systems (HDAS, reference 2) are used to measure at the same time. The sampling interval is controlled by the scale and moving splines on the measuring line to make up for the lack of using hand-held GPS. Measurement content: About 440 points on the quadrat were obtained, and each point was observed twice, i.e. two times in each sampling point, one time inside the film (marked as a in the data record) and one time outside the film (marked as B in the data record); although the watermelon land was also covered with film, considering that it was not laid horizontally, only the soil moisture at the non covered position was measured (marked as B in the two data records). As the HDAS system uses pogo portable soil sensor, the soil temperature, soil moisture (volume moisture content), loss tangent, soil conductivity, real part and imaginary part of soil complex dielectric are observed. Because the vegetation in this area has been sampled and observed once every five days, no special vegetation synchronous sampling has been carried out on that day. Data: The data format of this data set is vector file, the spatial location is the location of each sampling point (WGS84 + UTM 47N), and the measurement information of soil moisture is recorded in the attribute file.
