To explore inorganic hydrochemical characteristics of the upper Yarlung Zangbo River, water samples were collected from the main stream and different tributaries in this region in August 2020. The water was collected with 100mL polyethylene (PE) plastic bottle, and the basic physical and chemical parameters such as pH value (±0.2) and dissolved oxygen (±1%) of the sampling site were measured by multi -parameter water quality monitor (YSI-EX02,USA).,and HCO3- concentration was titrated with 0.025mol/L HCl.The concentrations of Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, SO42-, NO3- and Cl- ions were analyzed and determined by ion chromatograph (Shenhan CIC-D160, China) in the laboratory. Using Gibbs model, correlation analysis and principal component analysis method, analyzed the one main ion concentration changes, chemical composition characteristics, analytical, and the ion source was designed to reveal inorganic water chemical characteristics of The Tibet plateau glacier melt water runoff, and for plateau typical river water and changing trend forecast provides the basis.

This data includes the daily average water temperature data at different depths of Nam Co Lake in Tibet which is obtained through field monitoring. The data is continuously recorded by deploying the water quality multi-parameter sonde and temperature thermistors in the water with the resolution of 10 minutes and 2 hours, respectively, and the daily average water temperature is calculated based on the original observed data. The instruments and methods used are very mature and data processing is strictly controlled to ensure the authenticity and reliability of the data; the data has been used in the basic research of physical limnology such as the study of water thermal stratification, the study of lake-air heat balance, etc., and to validate the lake water temperature data derived from remote sensing and different lake models studies. The data can be used in physical limnology, hydrology, lake-air interaction, remote sensing data assimilation verification and lake model research.
