A dataset of solar radiation and soil heat fluxes for agro-ecosystems in the hilly area of Central Sichuan Province(2005-2021)
As the primary source of energy for surface ecosystems,solar radiation is the original driving force for ecosystems to maintain their normal operation and development.Soil heat flux in the surface layer is an important parameter for keeping the earth's surface energy balance.Sichuan Yanting National Field Scientific Observatory for Agro-Ecosystems(Yanting Station)is the sole national field station focused on monitoring agro-ecosystems in the subtropical Sichuan Basin agro-ecological zone.This region is characterized by superior light,heat,and water resources,along with a widespread distribution of purple soil in the non-zone soils.The combination of a subtropical humid monsoon climate and purple soil fosters active farming,making it the primary agricultural area in the Sichuan Basin.Based on the Vaisala(Finland)automated meteorological observation system in the integrated meteorological observation field at Yanting Station,we produceds dataset of solar radiation and soil heat fluxes for agro-ecosystems during 2005-2021,in the following of data collection,processing,and data quality control.The solar radiation monitoring includes total radiation,reflected radiation,ultraviolet radiation,net radiation and photosynthetically active radiation.The dataset has five EXCEL files containing hourly,daily and monthly values,with a data volume of 32.7 MB.This dataset can provide data support for research on the assessment of ecosystem production capacity,response to climate change,etc.
