A dataset of carbon and water fluxes of the forest ecosystem at Xishuangbanna Station from 2003 to 2024

The raw observation data were collected at the flux observation site within a 1-hectare plot of tropical rainforest in this station. Based on the ChinaFLUX data processing system, the raw observation data 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).
