A dataset of carbon and water fluxes of the grassland ecosystem at Hongyuan site from 2017 to 2018

The site is located at the National Field Observation and Research Station (Sichuan Zoige) for Alpine Wetland Ecosystem, representing a typical alpine grassland ecosystem. Based on the ChinaFLUX data processing system, the raw observation data collected at the site were processed 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).
