A dataset of carbon and water fluxes of the grassland ecosystem at Dashalong Station from 2013 to 2024

This dataset includes flux observation data for the grassland ecosystem at the Dashalong station in the upstream reaches of the Heihe River Basin from 2013 to 2024. The station is located in Qilian County, Qinghai Province, and the underlying surface is an alpine grassland. Based on the ChinaFLUX data processing system, we processed the raw observation data collected at the flux tower in the station to produce this standardized dataset of ecosystem carbon and water fluxes and key meteorological elements. In the dataset, the data for each year consists of 8 Excel data files, divided into two categories: LITE, which includes major fluxes and meteorological variables, and ALL, which adds data quality and interpolation indicators on the basis of LITE. Each category has four data files, including data files at four scales: half-hour (HH), day (DD), month (MM), and year (YY).
