Meteorological elements of the dataset include the near-surface land-air exchange parameters, such as downward/upward longwave/shortwave radiation flux, momentum flux, sensible heat flux, latent heat flux, etc. In addition, the vertical distributions of 3-dimensional wind, temperature, humidity, and pressure from the surface to the tropopause are also included. Independent evaluations were conducted for the dataset by comparison between the observational data and the most recent ERA5 reanalysis data. The results demonstrate the accuracy and superiority of this dataset against reanalysis data, which provides great potential for future climate change research.

The data were collected from the sample plot of Haibei Alpine Meadow Ecosystem Research Station (101°19′E，37°36′N，3250m above sea level), which is located in the east section of Lenglongling, the North Branch of Qilian Mountain in the northeast corner of Qinghai Tibet Plateau. Alpine meadow is the main vegetation type in this area. The data recorded the light, air temperature and humidity, wind temperature and wind speed above the alpine plant canopy. The radiation intensity above the alpine plant canopy was recorded by LI-190R photosynthetic effective radiation sensor (LI-COR, Lincoln NE, USA) and LR8515 data collector (Hioki E. E. Co., Nagano, Japan), and the recording interval was once per second. S580-EX temperature and humidity recorder (Shenzhen Huatu) and universal anemometer are used (Beijing Tianjianhuayi) record the daily dynamics of air temperature and humidity, wind temperature and wind speed every three seconds. The recording time is from 10:00 on July 13 to 21:00 on August 17, Beijing time. Due to the need to use USB storage time and replace the battery every day, 3-5min of data is missing every day, and the missing time period is not fixed. At present, the data has not been published. Through research on the data The data can further explore the microenvironment of alpine plant leaves and its possible impact on leaf physiological response.

This dataset contains the fluxes and meteorological data of Weishan (Gaoying) flux site of Tsinghua University from May 17, 2005 to September 26, 2006. The site (116.0542° E, 36.6487° N, 30 m above sea level) was built on March 18, 2005 and is located in Xiaozhuang Town, Chiping District, Liaocheng City, Shandong Province. It belongs to Weishan Irrigation District along the lower Yellow River. The local climate is characterized as temperate monsoons, with an average annual temperature of 13.8 ℃, an average annual precipitation of 553mm, most of which occurs between June and October, and an average annual potential evaporation of 1950mm. The soil type is silt loam. For the soil of the top 5 cm, the average saturated soil water content, field capacity and wilting point in volumetric values are 0.43, 0.33 and 0.10 m3m-3, respectively. The height of the flux tower is 10m, and the area within about 1 km radius around the flux tower is largely homogeneous winter wheat-summer maize rotation cropland. The winter wheat is generally sown in mid-October and harvested in early June of the following year, while the summer maize is usually planted directly into the stubbles of wheat at the same location immediately after the harvest of wheat and is harvested in late September to early October. See the file named “Supplementary data_WeishanGaoying20052006.xlsx” for specific sowing, harvesting and irrigation dates. The surface flux data is measured by the eddy covariance system, which is composed of a three-dimensional sonic anemometer (CSAT3, Campbell Scientific, Inc., Logan, UT, USA) and an open-path infrared gas analyzer (IRGA) (LI-7500, LI-COR, Inc., Lincoln, NE, USA) with an installation height of 3.7m. The 30-minute net ecosystem carbon exchange (NEE), latent heat flux (LE) and sensible heat flux (H) data were obtained after the raw 10Hz data were processed by Eddypro software. The preprocessing steps included despiking, double coordinate rotation, 30-min block averaging, time lag compensation, spectral corrections, the Webb-Pearman-Leuning (WPL) density correction, a quality check using the “0-1-2 system”. Then the 30-min data were screened as follows: (1) remove bad quality fluxes with quality flag 2; (2) limit H and LE to - 200 ~ 500 W m-2 and - 200 ~ 800 W m-2, respectively; (3) the data during the precipitation events were excluded. Then, REddyproc software is used to filter the data under low turbulence mixing conditions (i.e. filter the flux data according to the friction wind speed u*), fill the gaps in the time series, and then the NEE was divided into ecosystem respiration (Reco) and gross primary production (GPP) by the nighttime partitioning method. The published dataset includes: year, month, day, time, atmospheric pressure (P), infrared surface temperature (Tsurf), wind speed (Ws), wind direction (Wd), air temperature (Tair) and relative humidity (rH) at 2m, downward short wave radiation (Rsd), upward short wave radiation (Rsu), downward long wave radiation (Rld), upward long wave radiation (Rlu), Net radiation (Rn), incident photosynthetically active radiation (PAR_dn), reflected photosynthetically active radiation (PAR_up), precipitation (precip), groundwater level (GW), 5cm/10cm/20cm/40cm/80cm/160cm soil water content (soil_VW_ 5cm / 10cm / 20cm / 40cm / 80cm / 160cm) and soil temperature (soil_T_5cm / 10cm / 20cm / 40cm / 80cm / 160cm), soil heat flux at 5cm depth (soil_ G) , raw data of net ecosystem carbon exchange (NEE_raw), raw data of latent heat flux (LE_raw), raw data of sensible heat flux (H_raw), net ecosystem carbon exchange after gap filling (NEE_ f) , latent heat flux after gap filling (LE_f), sensible heat flux after gap filling (H_f), ecosystem respiration imputation (Reco_f), gross primary productivity (GPP_f). The data are stored in .xlsx format at 30-minute intervals. Null values in the dataset are represented by NA.

The other data in addition to the four-component radiation data during January 1 to October 12 were missing because the malfunction of datalogger. The missing data were denoted by -6999. (2) Data in duplicate records were rejected. (3) Unphysical data were rejected. (4) The data marked in red are problematic data. (5) The format of the date and time was unified, and the date and time were collected in the same column, for example, date and time: 2018-1-1 10:30. Moreover, suspicious data were marked in red.
