The observation dataset of glacial hydrological stations in the Namco Basin (2006-2008)- A Big Earth Data Platform for Three Poles

This data set comprises the observed runoff data of the glacial hydrological stations in the Namco Basin in Tibet from 2006 to 2008. It contains monthly mean runoff data from four regions: the Niyaqu river, Qugaqie river, Zhadang river, and Angqu river. The data were used to study the regional hydrology and water resources.

Measurement instrument: propeller flow velocity meter (LS1206B), Hobo water level meter.

Spatial location:

Niyaqu, East Namco (the road near the lake outlet): 90.2969E, 31.0342N, elevation: 4730 m;

Qugaqie, South Namco (road into the lake outlet): 90.6361E, 30.8175N, elevation: 4780 m;

End of the Zhadang Glacier: 90.7261E, 30.6878N, elevation: 5400 m;
